Well you'd have to climb a house or a tree in ways that would be quite acrobatic, again to multiple cameras at once. These are not casually available and even with a ladder are quite a dangle. The trees they are in are not "good climbing trees" at all.

All while I'm getting alerts that there's motion sent to email, (which I have greenlit to ping my notifications and buzz) and I could hit "backup" at any time by remoting to my PC and running the command.

If a 5 man team is arriving with tools and ladders and is aware of my situation the game is over anyway and I'm just calling the cops.

i suppose they could be recording over the network, but if a card in one of them fails that's going to be quite the chore huh.

It's true. 7 years and no failures yet, but my mere writing this will probably doom me.

Again I'm only suggesting a minimum viable option to get off the teat of a subscription / cloud provider. Im not promoting this beyond that.
