    I don’t think you’re overreacting, but also she may not have been lying.

    I often take photos out and about, of flowers, bugs, or nice views. Sometimes a bug or flower will be on someone’s property so I zoom in or crop to avoid any identifying info. Like, I could see her explanation as being the truth, but I also don’t think you overreacted.

      I too sometimes take pics of flowers I see, so I can see that reason as being credible

      It just seemed too organised

      stand, take a photo of house number where there are no plants, then take pics of plants

      why take photos of house numbers

        I don’t think you were over-reacting at all. Could be a number of explanations, but the fact that she pixed house numbers seems very sus to me too. If she comes back, take a picture of her and send an email to the local cop shop just in case. . Funny how people like taking pix but don’t like being pixed back.

            Might be planned to snitch pot plants for re-sale at a market up the country. It’s been known to happen. As has people nicking flowers from cemeteries for the same purpose.

              my thought exactly

              and casing for pot plants is not something you can do from a drive by, you have to see behind front fences

                And then send your teenage sons around with a van to do the actual snitching.
