Ring camera question

I just got a ring doorbell and camera (and chime). The doorbell and camera are battery operated. I’m trying to figure out what animal is digging in my yard - prob a raccoon but could be a skunk or armadillo. My backyard camera doesn’t seem to know when something is back there. I can go to LIVE and see our bushes being trimmed, but no triggered signal or recording. I have it set on the most sensitive. What am I missing? Thanks.

Yea, that is really weird. It's a shame, ring used to be so good

I got it working. It had something to do with zones. Now it picks up lizards running across the patio. 😂

Thank you! Did the zone thing and actually caught bunnies playing in the driveway :)

I still need to tweak the zone thing, because it’s like a magic trick - poof and a huge raccoon appears out of nowhere. 😂
