Jos Stratford said:Up here in LT, what have I bumped into this year? Foxes are more or less diurnal and there is one particular meadow where I can expect up to four or five per day, often Roe Deer in the same meadow. On my land, had a nice couple of Racoon Dogs wandering down to my new pools earlier in the year and have one MASSIVE beaver lodge in the flood forest, not that I've seen more than the splash of one of their tails and a rapidly disappearing shape in the water. Had a few Wild Boar piglets hurtling off at great speed, along with a rather narked Mrs Pig too! Been quite a while since I've seen an Elk - last in LT was late last autumn, though a few in Poland since (and plenty of tracks across my land). One Pine Martin some time ago and have a cute little mouse of some unknown species under my sunflower feeder every day!
Still dream about the wolves that inhabit the forests and fancy that a bear might one day come a'wandering through my feeding station ...but now we really are talking dreams!
Forgive my ignorance, Jos (we don't have Wild Boars in Ireland) but was that not a wee bit scary?
All I see are Rabbits, Hares and Squirrels, usually.
