Security cameras recommendation

You may want to try something cheap before spending big bucks.  I just got a $20 Wyze 2 camera.   It is not outdoor rated, but I have it under a covered porch.  It does need AC to power the USB port.

Maybe try a game/trail camera? Something like this.

They are battery operated but the batteries last a long time and you can position them almost any where. I have a different brand that can shoot video or still photos and the resolution is amazing. Night or day.

Mine is a reconyx, a little pricier but it doesn't miss anything. I get a whole year plus out of a set of lithium batteries.

BTW, if you go this route get one with infrared flash. It's invisible to humans which makes it more stealth.

This is what I have for reference.

Holy smokes that baby is pricey, don’t know where you live but does it stay outside all year in cold weather too?  My browning quit
after one ohio winter. 

I've never had a problem but can't say I've had it out below 15 degrees. It does fine even when it's that cold though. The batteries seem to last forever, I changed them after about 16 months and they still showed around 25% life left.
This was one of my cry once buy once purchases and I wanted something dependable that would work as expected. 3 years later I can't say I'm sorry for choosing this camera.
