I am sure they are a bit more expensive than the go pro. Also if you stuck one in a hole and something bit it, might mess up the wiring. Sort of like doing a gastrocope on a patient and having them bite it. A no no. I wonder about one of those small fleixible tripods attached to the pvc pipe might work and give you a bit more flexibility on the end. Just a thought. tammy in lower Al.

I look at my Sluggo's grievous lawnmower gouge and marvel that he's alive at all, much less able to move his back legs.<br /><br />However. All hail the inventive omnivorous primate who came up with BurrowCam. I LOVE IT. And love how the gopher squidges away from it. SO COOL. Looking forward to the additional applications of BurrowCam!! because you're always sticking your nose into ooky places, aren't you?Julie Zickefoosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06654698829603424649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12006171.post-3572896247089187872013-01-02T21:21:48.978-05:002013-01-02T21:21:48.978-05:00Jencie,

I'm glad PF provides some Florida sunshine for you!<br /><br />Robin,<br />I just asked myself, "What would roger do?"<br /><br />Caroline,<br />True. I do get attached to these plodding tortoises though.<br /><br />Dan,<br />I plan to use some elbow joints to provide some variety of angle for that very type of peeking.<br /><br /><br />SandcastleMomma,<br />True that! I use the head mount alot on my runs and I have to make a conscious effort to keep still at times.<br />You might try a chest mount strap for kayaking topwater shots. I have one, but haven't used it yet.<br /><br />ThreeCollie,<br />LOL! Thanks! There's so many places this little camera can go!<br /><br />R.Powershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04905593499136090763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12006171.post-46199355525559851312013-01-02T15:15:41.468-05:002013-01-02T15:15:41.468-05:00Infinitely cool, beyond description!Infinitely cool, beyond description!threecolliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05811004278088768813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12006171.post-74718942685928183422013-01-02T13:13:58.892-05:002013-01-02T13:13:58.892-05:00Brilliant!

Hubby is rigging a way to mount our GP to the bottom of our yak so we can get underwater footage as we paddle. One thing I have learned about the GP and the yak is don't put the GP on your head - you don't realize how much you swing your head from side to side while paddling until you get home. We now mount the GP on the front of the yak - which only swings side to side when we make it.

I have to admit I was also a bit scared that I would flush a rattler from the burrow.
