Hi @f49970fbef67a782094a. Motion detection can be a bit tricky when it comes to animals, as they will likely trigger the motion detection if they're moving across the Camera's view. Making adjustments to the Motion Zones and the Motion Sensitivity was a great start for troubleshooting. If you have a Ring Protect plan, you will also have access to the Smart Alerts feature to further refine your motion alerts. This works great for some neighbors, so it may be worth trying that out. You can learn more [here](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360032947972-Refining-Your-Motion-Alert-Notifications-for-People-and-Other-Motions-). It will take some trial and error to find a combination of settings you like the most, though you may still receive some alerts from animals.

We have never been able to prevent birds, bats, and cats from alerting on our outdoor driveway camera. The settings never allowed us to eliminate alerts for people and vehicles in the street despite adjusting the barrier lines and sensitivity.  We had to turn off the notifications. We recently bought a different system which uses AI to accurately report.
