Crackin' videos, I've looked at all of them. It isn't beginners luck, there's just so much happening under our noses, all we have to do is take the time to look.
Great stuff Kas,bet you were delighted with the Pine Martin.Gordon Buchanan look out.
Thanks, I was well chuffed and the trap is set again then I will move it to a new location this weekend. I did throw a handful of bird seed and peanuts down when I set it, peanuts took the martin in I suspect. ;)
That was well good kas. Gary Player the old golfer said the more i practice the luckier I get. Thats a great bit of kit.
Hi,
what type of camera did you set up?

Loving the bouncing pine martin! How expensive is the kit? I'd love to put one down on the beach, as I think we have fairly new born otter cubs up the burn that haven't left the holt yet.
I am using a Bushnell Trophy Cam HD Max but there are lots of other models available. This one is very simple to use and can take stills as well. Here are the first visitors I had to trigger it

Thanks - think I'll have to wait for the next set of cubs!
Absolutely amazing! Many thanks for sharing. :)
Great stuff. Look forward to seeing more.
Did you scent or bait the stump?
I threw a handful of birdfood down, thinking I would get birds coming in.
Smear the next stump with peanut butter or jam, that should attract the martins...can't wait for the next footage.

Did that last week Liz and here it is, no fox this time. Trap now taken away from here to leave them in peace and I will look for somewhere new over the weekend.
Nice to have met you today on the banks of The Thurso River, my Wife wasn't "cajoling" me for talking to you, she just wanted a cigarette. . Take good care and keep in touchQuote:

Thanks for the kind comments, the camera was put out again and this time positioned near lots of scat. Some great footage recorded and a wee mystery noise I am hoping someone can help me with.
