Turn the motion sensitivity down. You can set the sensitivity by editing your Mode (Armed), then edit the rule for your camera, then tap the pencil next to detects motion. Set you sensitivity there.

Even at 8% it still detects.  I dont think the sensitivity adjustment do anything

Are you adjusting the sensitivity in your modes and saving? If you're using the Motion Detection Test, it won't save since it's just a test.

[Amati5]

Yes, in mode and saved and checked again and it was at 8%.

I think you can use the zoom feature, under camera settings, video settings, for each camera, to zoom in on where you want motion and recording to take place. This way you could then zoom in a bit to remove the bushes from the cameras motion detection and recording field of view. I've never tried so not sure how well it works.

Zooming in changes the cameras field of view, but not the field of detection. You may have to consider relocating the camera, or you could try subscribing to Arlo Smart which would allow you create activity zones. For more information on Arlo Smart, take a look here: Arlo Smart
