Wild boar - lots of them this time!

As I said, we put our trail camera back near the mud bath the boar like to use, and we were rewarded with some results! In this video you can see four boar together at one point. At the end of the video is a single boar on its own - this was actually taken the next evening. This makes me think the big boar at the end might have been a mature male, roaming on his own, while the group could be females and adolescents. Anyway, watch the video and see what you think:

We didn't just get a boar, we also got a rabbit as well. OK, not as exciting, but here's the video anyway:

Trail camera: A fox and a butterfly

We finally have some interesting wildlife on our trail camera! Here's a video of a fox having a sniff around our pond:

Here's a more bizarre one. What I think happened is a butterfly landed on the camera, triggering the motion sensor, and then proceeded to crawl over the lens while it was recording. Given the colours visible, and what I know is flying around the pond right now, I think it was a White Admiral.
