2nd, get some kind of wifi motion sensor camera that can send pics/videos to your phone. There are several hunting trail cameras that can do the job but you have to look at battery life. Some of them can be a few weeks to a few months. Position them for the most visibility of your camera while being as covertly hidden as possible. We have a Ring doorbell that works great for guarding our front porch. They have also expanded their offerings to security cameras as well.
Reolink makes a battery operated camera that can be recharged with a small solar panel. The
Argus 2 with the optional solar panel is about $160. It is wireless, so doesn't need to be wired to the internet. It also accepts up to a 64 GB microSD card that records video on. No subscription cloud service needed. The video can be viewed from a computer and through the app on a mobile device. It can also be download to give to law enforcement if needed. I have several Reolink Cameras and find them to work very well, day and night.
Cameras won't deter theft, but you will record it happening and hopefully help law enforcement.
