Fox Cam

More video of our garden fox.

Video

This camera really is a great piece of kit. It can take video as well, or you can set it to take photos and video. We tried it out first on our local fox with some good results.

Night manoeuvres

After experiencing day time activity, we wanted to see who was visiting the garden at night. The camera also has an infrared flash setting and can take clear pictures at night. The IR flash is invisible so it does not disturb the animals.

 It did not take long to find a visitor, after we put down a bit of bait. The fox obviously likes cat biscuits.

The fox seems to be looking at the camera.

This fox seems to be well fed and fat. We thought it could be pregnant, but it is not quite the right time of year.

We wanted to capture the early morning feed at the bird station, and we found that our robin dominates the food in the night as well.

My Wildlife Camera

Here we start a new series of photos from my Wildlife Camera. It is an Acorn 6210. These are some of my first experiments.

A blue tit captured in the garden on boxing day.

We have a pair of collared doves nesting in a neighbours tree.

A great tit visiting the bird feeder is especially fond of the fat balls.

 The robin is our most frequent visitor and we have countless photos already. I wonder if it bullies the other birds away.

We used to have huge flocks of starlings in Britain but we don't see many around here today.
