Screenshots of both day and night views would be useful. It may be moisture on the lens or the IR is reflecting from a nearby surface, "blinding" the camera.

Well, definitely not a nearby object. I believe the issue is the distance - the IR LEDs won't light up large areas. There may also be dew on the lens exacerbating the issue. What happens if you turn on any outdoor lights and record?
