Winter feeding stations.
11th March 2020
I have been feeding Common Buzzards in a woodland near to where I live for a few weeks but it's been very much hit and miss especially with the appalling weather we have been experiencing. I have hidden my little trail camera on a nearby tree, housed in a wooden box I made to protect it from the wind and rain. The camera is supposed to be waterproof but I wasn't taking any chances. The shelter is just like a nest box with an open front and it works very well as the camera has remained totally dry even in the very worst of weather.
A few Buzzards have been visiting, albeit infrequently.

And there was a brief visit from a Badger the other night, always nice to see. The Badger is shot in infra red as expected with their nocturnal habits.

The weather forecast next week is better - at last!! so maybe things will pick up on the wildlife front - lets hope!
