POE cam on a tree in the yard - eviltoast

I want to mount a POE camera on a tree in my backyard, facing my house. The tree is about 15m from the house. What’s the best way to do this? Direct burial Cat6? The camera is a Reolink Duo Floodlight. The house is in an area with a lot of lightning if that makes a difference.

    I have a similar setup but used a bird house on top of a pole (4x4 with 2x4 notched out to hide the cable.

    I grounded the cat 6A came at the ingress/egress point.
