Is it a bird? Is it a plane?
Yesterday I saw what I thought was weird behaviour but someone else in the hide thought was a hunting technique.
The weasel came out into the open and had what I would have described as "blue fit". I thought it was actually chasing something at first but then started jumping in the air, turning sommersaults, dashing one way and another and flipping itself over on to its back.
The bloke with me said he thought they did that to scare prey out but I thought that sounded a bit strange as the way it was going on it wouldn't have noticed. It did this a couple of times.
I thought if it had been with another weasel it would have been playing in the same manner.
Do they play on their own?
