Night camera highlights

Now there are two cameras surveying the top 'runway' between the bird hide and the patio - and so far there has been some good night time action!
There has been:
  • FOX
  • HEDGEHOG
  • MOUSE
  • FROG
  • CAT
  • ROB (!)
I hope to put some stills on the blog to show the action

Wildlife at Granville

Looking out of Harrys window this morning, I saw a GREATER SPOTTED WOODPECKER right at the back of the garden - not seen one for a while in the garden which was nice. I could hear a green woodpecker but not seen in the garden.
GSW returns!
Then the woodpecker flew off (as did the robin on the feeder) - and it was due to a RED FOX that walked from the hide end of the garden down the steps and into the main garden. A lovely little juvenile.
