Bringing our Wildlife to you!
At the moment the Badgers tend to be feeding on camera one first, it could be because it is staying lighter of an evening. Although camera one is very near the farmhouse, it is positioned in a darker and more secluded spot than camera two, that is very open position. As it gets lighter of […]
The Ewe and lamb are doing much better, they are turned out on the grass in the mornings and come in of a night. No more of the Ewes have lambed yet, but I am sure that it just a matter of time and we will have a few more. They will have to come […]
We try at least four times a week to walk around the whole farm. Although the farm is only sixty acres, it is in a long strip, and it is more like walking a hundred acres, with each field having different aspects. The farm is in a very beautiful secluded valley. On entering before getting […]
The twin ram lamb was missing this morning, unfortunately he must have been taken by a Fox or Badger. We have looked everywhere for him, but he could not be found. I had given the lambs a late bottle feed last night, the last time I saw him was at 11.30pm I had the choice […]
I don’t know if anyone else saw them, between camera one and camera two last night there were ten badgers. I have been checking the cameras out every night since we found the dead Badger, and although I had my suspicions that the dead Badger was not from the local sett as it looked very […]

Today we managed to renew the wire to the valley camera, it was broken in the high wind a few weeks back. I was surprised how far it is away from the Farm House, the piece of wire needing replacing was a 100m long, The camera is a good quarter of a mile away. I […]
The twin lambs did not look too good this morning, both were calling out and obviously had not been feeding as they should, The Ewe was definitely unhappy, scouring, pawing the ground and not eating, a good sign that she was likely to have a tummy upset, we gave both the Ewe and the lambs […]
