I have an Essential 2nd Gen I installed a week ago. Today it was a bit windy and the tree the camera was hanging on was moving slightly. The camera was recording motion literally constantly and registering it as an "animal". There was literally NOTHING moving except when the wind blew the camera moved a few milimeters. Is there a way to control this so I don't get this constant recording/motion sensing?

Putting the camera on a non-moveable surface would help but first try reducing the motion sensitivity in the camera's settings under Default Mode Settings while still getting the coverage needed. Also, does this only happen during the day? If so, it's likely picking up the sun's IR being reflected off leaves, branches or even grass.
