Bringing our Wildlife to you!
I have put five new photographs on the Photo Page, starting from the first photograph. The First three are from Jacqui and the fourth and fifth are from Elsie. There are a few that have been sent in that will put on over the next few days. One of the large flock of Parquets that […]
There are two new photographs on the photo page. The Ponies from the New Forest in Hampshire was emailed from Elsie and the Moorhen was sent in by Vicky from Derby. Elaine and Sue, it did look a little like the Badgers were mating this evening, but they were actually playing. They must have been […]
I had thought that after the Government’s Independent Scientific Groups report in June, that call for a Badger Cull had been put to bed once and for all. I expected the NFU to have their normal whinge, to try to show that they are an effective force in UK Farming. They haven’t been that for […]
I finally spoke to Veterinary about Woody this morning. The blood samples taken some weeks ago were looked at again, they showed very little to what is the cause of Woody’s problems. There were small signs of worm infestation, but it would not be uncommon to find that. Our Horses are regularly wormed. The most […]
I have for a while thought that the Badger who comes out to feed, even before I am over the gate, waits near the path I use to get to the Badger feeding place. After tonight I know it does. I try to go a little later every night to feed the Badger, so that […]
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 […]
Sorry about the Denbury Farm web cams going down last night, I did not realise until I got up this morning, and I don’t know how long they were off for. We had an automatic update on our security, that restarted our computers and turned the web cams off. The Squirrels are back in force, […]
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 […]
You can just about see the heads of the Dove chicks emerging today, It may sound cruel but I reckon that they are, well if I say that they are unattractive, it would be an under statement, the real word is ugly, but when mature they are a very attractive bird. We let the Ewes […]
At about 8.30pm last night there was one hell of a noise, very close to the farm house, it sounded as if a Fox was killing a Pheasant, it quite often happens, but this was going on far too long for a Fox and Pheasant, so we went out side to investigate and saw that […]
