Another rattus with my DIY scopecam!

I heard the DD'er go off a couple of hours ago, so I grabbed my .22 FX Wildcat with my DIY scopecam and headed out the door. I got to the corner and peeked around and saw 2 rats run into the shed. The coast was clear so I stepped out and around my chair and tripod set-up.
I waited for it seemed like 10 minutes and wasn't seeing anything. I was beginning to think that they had seen me when trying to get in the chair. I finally saw a lizard and was thinking about target practicing with him. Then I saw movement out of my left eye and moved the scope back to the shed. Yep, it was game on!
Remember the footage is reversed 180* like mirror image. I caught him right below his left ear and exited in the same place on the right side of his head. The Wildcat is a tack driver when I do my part, and don't knock the scope off.

Yes, unfortunately the scopecam won't film in low light. I was hoping it would film with the red solar lights, but it doesn't. I'm thinking about modifying another camera and removing the IR film on the chip or lens. It should be capable of filming at night then if I use my IR illuminator.
I was lucky with the last rat I shot at night and the trail cam caught the action.
For now I'll just check the DD'er in the day time if it's cloudy or later in the afternoon.
