[QUOTE="Jos Stratford, post: 3199410, member: 12449"] [B][U]April[/U][/B] Start of spring, temperatures clambering up to the high teens by middle month, [B]Polecat[/B], [B]Moose[/B] and more bats to celebrate. After the stagnation of March, a bit of an upswing - all on the 4th, basements in Vilnius city adding four[B] Brant's Bats[/B] and one [B]Daubenton's Bat [/B]and forests north of the city contributing one [B]Red Fox[/B], two [B]Brown Hares[/B], a couple of[B] Roe Deers[/B] and a herd of four [B]Red Deers[/B]. Not bad for an afternoon trundle around! Better however, a week later, a [B]Polecat[/B] scurried across the road on my way home late at night on the 10th, then I live trapped a [B]Common Vole [/B]on my land on the 11th ...both new species for the year and the vole also a new species for my Labanoras plot (the 24th species of mammal). Also at Labanoras, one large [B]Moose[/B] stalking through hazel groves near my cabin, a [B]Red Fox[/B] in the meadows and a [B]Pine Marten[/B] coming to bait at night. Unfortunately too, with spring gathering pace, so too a rise in roadkills - three [B]Eastern Hedgehogs[/B] recorded between the 9th and 11th, along with one [B]Brown Hare [/B]and one [B]American Mink[/B]. Additions to the year list... [B]24. Polecat 25. Common Vole ---- Moose[/B] (first sighted, previously tracks only) [/QUOTE]
