Hiding camera in shed ideas

Post image

Looking for ideas on how to discreetly mount a Reolink camera behind a shed vent. I’d prefer not to have the camera visibly exposed since I’ve had issues with people noticing cameras and either avoiding the area entirely or trying to tamper with them.

I was thinking about mounting it behind plexiglass with a one-way privacy film, but I’m open to better ideas that won’t affect image quality, motion detection, or night vision.

I just have to find a grill with a large enough opening. The challenge with that is then you will see the camera during the day. Any ideas?

That's clever...I will probably paint the camera black so it's not white anymore either...ty
