  • Fox in our garden

    Something had been messing about with my improvised cat-proof hedgehog feeding station / shelter, craftily pulling the food dish out and scoffing the lot. Not something the local cats would do. So I have been monitoring it with my wildlife camera. From last night's activity it turns out it was a fox (confirming my suspicions) - this time it ate all the food and stole the dish! I made a composition of video clips from the wildlife camera - all B&W I'm afraid and a bit fuzzy.



    I've put some food out tonight to see if it comes back. Not sure if I should be encouraging it into the garden but I quite like foxes and they're apparently about. I could do with a wildlife camera that has WiFi and maybe pings me when there's any action. I'd probably have to use flash to get any photos on the OM camera though or maybe get it comfortable with LED "garden lights".

        Great footage. I love using trail cameras.

        For my trail cameras and for th groups I have worked wih I would always suggest looking at https://naturespy.org/?msclkid=cbd9d...0-%20NatureSpy
        They use the cameras all the time and seem to be fair in the in their assessments and helpful when things dont quite work.

            Thanks all.

            I was actually looking at a WiFi camera on NatureSpy earlier. I quite like the look of this one - NatureSpy WiFi WildCam 2 - says it will ping the phone if something is happening

            The new WiFi Wildlife Camera 2 from NatureSpy. A small, WiFi-connected garden wildlife camera ideal for watching birds, hedgehogs & more.


            Either that or a Raspberry Pi camera project.
