Bringing our Wildlife to you!
The network connection from the farmhouse to the telescope observatory is turning out to be a bigger problem than I initially thought it would be. I have been trying to get it going for a time last night, and on and off today. It looks very much like I will have to run a new […]
I spoke today to the person who I mentioned a week or so ago about the Water Vole. His name is Derek Gow and has a Web site www.watervoles.com. He breeds Water Vole in Devon and has done a number of release programs around the country. We didn’t get around to speaking about a release […]
The Lock of the Lowe’s visitors centre managed to get one of the new camera working today. I had hoped that the main PTZ camera would be working, so that we could see the last of the Osprey chicks before they migrate. They are going to try to get it going next week. We are […]
I have been trying to get a fixed camera positioned on to the branch that we put into the lake to try to get the Kingfisher to fish from. It has landed onto the branch a few times, not so frequently that it would warrants leaving the main lake camera that has a bird feeder […]
Who’s the cleaver one. Within a few days of putting the branch in to the lake, we got a Kingfisher on camera at 4.15pm this afternoon. I have only seen one twice in all the time that have been at Denbury, as you can imagine I am really pleased that we managed to see one […]
I hope when I turned the camera over, that some of you saw the Badger trying to get peanuts out of the Bird feeder. To get to where it was, it needed to climb a tree. I suppose it was about seven feet off of the ground. It would not have been over hard to […]
Tass and kye came in this afternoon with a pigeon nestling in Tass’s mouth. When we are indoors the dogs rarely go more than a few yards from the door, so the nest could only have been very close, unless a Magpie had robbed a nest and Tass and Kye had frightened it off. It […]
At Rye Harbour last night we had a big thunderstorm and lots of rain… and power cuts, so that explains why our webcams went black for a while. I was concerned that the Common Tern chicks might have suffered, but they all look OK this morning. There are 3 types of food being brought in, […]
I am surprised that the Swallow fledglings have not returned to the nest this evening, it could be that it is a little early. it will be unusual for them not to return, as all of the other nest that I have shown, they have return for a week or more. The Adults on the […]
We managed to get one of the two new cameras up and working today. It is a fixed camera that is positioned to look at where the Badgers come out to feed. As you see the Badgers come into view the sett entrance is just a matter of inches away. It has taken a couple […]
