Bringing our Wildlife to you!
The web cams are now back on. We had a minor problem that has now been rectified. Rather than spoil the news that Lady gave birth to the Filly Foal early Tuesday morning, I held back the sad news that Woody also foaled on Tuesday night, the Foal being still born.. Woody has been very […]
The Filly saw the big wide world, I reckon she likes what she saw, once we had got he out of the stable. You would think that they would follow Mum, no way, they are all the same, Mum starts to leave the stable on the head collar, but you can guarantee the Foals don’t […]
First the bad news. The Blackbird chicks got out of the box that their nest was in, earlier today, we managed to find one of them, no sooner than we put it back into the nest it got out. This time we were unable to find it. The chicks were to young to have fledged, […]
I saw the Badger cub for the first time last night. It does look as if the Sow has only got one cub, more than likely she had two and one has died. I could be wrong and that there is another one who has not come out of the sett as yet. I hope […]
I managed to get the Swallows camera up this afternoon. I will put it on now and then instead of the Blackbird camera. Not to much as the Swallows are still building their nest. Well I hope they are, the eggs will soon fall out of that sorry affair, unless they make a better job […]
I am putting up a Swallow nesting camera in Stable Barn/Cottage. It should be working tomorrow. We intended to have this cottage finished by now, but the clown who did some work on the roof, has done it wrong and I am waiting to have it redone. In the mean time at least one pair […]
More news on The Scottish Wildlife Trust. On speaking to the Lock of the Lowe’s Centre Manager today, he has told me that they have regulars visits from Pine Martin. One of the camera that we will supply will be put in a place, where hopefully they will be seen on the web cams. The […]
We are really thrilled to announce that we are to host the web cams for The Scottish Wildlife Trust at their Lock of the Lowe’s centre, focusing through the summer on their nesting pair of Ospreys. The web cams that are in place at the centre now, update and have a 30 second cut off. […]
The diary tonight will be very short. You may see Woody putting her head over Lady’s stable. It is the first time that she has been up all day. She was ill last night and has been flat out all day, We are doing all we can to make her comfortable. There is a very […]
It has been raining on and off for two days, not very heavy, I suppose you could call it longish showers, for sure it is not enough. We really need a lot more prolonged rain, to penetrate the soil. I sound like a glutton for punishment. Believe me I am not, I would much rather […]
