Well, I knew back on Feb 17! 
Seriously...if you've got that kind of action so close to the house, you'd get a real kick out of capturing it with a trail cam. Be certain that you don't have any two-legged critters creeping about, or it will go missing in short order, especially if you leave it on flash mode. A trespasser that gets himself flash-photographed knows the camera is there and has very little choice except to take the camera to conceal his identity. When I use mine where people are expected (such as to monitor trail use in the wilderness area I manage in the summers) I cut the flash unit off, add camo paint, and conceal the camera very carefully under a pile of branches or inside a rotten log with only the lens and sensors exposed. The only camera I ever lost was one that was set to flash in an area where I didn't expect human interlopers. I was wrong.
