Deep in a chunk of the pine forests of north-east Estonia, a small clearing exists. Echoing to the calls of Cuckoos and distant Cranes, a nondescript clearing perhaps, but on the edge, tucked up against the pines, there stand a couple of rather special hides. Constructed by NaTourEst, an Estonian wildlife company, these are the bear-watching hides!
From spring through to autumn, daily offerings of grain, fruit and other tasty morsels tempt in an array of nocturnal visitors, Brown Bears the top billing, Raccoon Dogs, Wild Boars and assorted others also regular.
There is also a live 24-hour cam overlooking the site that offers wonderful peaks into this excellent little spot in the Baltics - take a look in the evenings or at night, almost certainly something to see!
I posted a link of my Baltic Mammal Challenge and it generated interest, so thought it worthy of its own thread.
