Boars cam, winter 2012 - 2013

thanks for interesting fox pic, ergee:)) its really interesting coloured fox (as rickys dark bellied was...)
but about cold..yesterday i came of work after 22:00 and...saw that temperature was -16C...but it was strange..it not felt so cold anymore...in the winter its different...if the all time low temperatures..its colder than in spring...if in day its warmer and sun already give warm

A raccoon dog passed by but I couldn't make a clip :(
What are those "stones" in the feeding ground?

I just missed capturing the raccoon dog also! The "stone" is, I think, a clump of grain all stuck together.

In Austria my neighbour had a farm and often he went to Insbruck to
a brewery where he got the stuff that remains after it is pressed out for ao beer..or other products, ( lemonade: the fruits, from a mill he got the skin of grains etc.).
It is good for animals and most of them like to eat it. For making marmelade they use fruits and those rests of the fruits also can be fed
to the cattle.
Ricky, is the name in Austria: Trester??

Ct 00.11. 1 of 2 Raccoondogs.



They will not be glad that they woke up in these cold nights!

Ct 1.00 . Tiny roebuck



and now 2 animals, the one at the right side is afraid of the clump of food.
And now, 1.02 both got too afraid to stay and jumped away! But I still
can hear them I think.

I think that you heard a lot of them!


A 6th one in the back.


And "Bravo!" for capturing the raccoon dogs.

and now, at last, it is getting pleasant






And now I really stop. Making mistakes and posting without being
logged in... but it was so interesting!
Good night!

Good night, Ergee.

Why not come and eat during the day when you are hungry and not nervous?

the left side into the forest and the jays came down.

Its Great Spotted Woodpecker (Dendroscopos major)
Black is 2x bigger and completely black

The pigs are exploring the new menu.

Hello Bisky,


Ct 19.30.
This seems to be the Hobble group, mostly 6 or 7. He got bigger
since we hardly saw him during some weeks . Food seems to
be tasty!

This is a pic from 31.1.2013..at that time we began to call him Punky
and somewhat later it was Hobble.
His right fore leg was always bend and he almost never touched the
ground with it. But a wound could not be seen, nor was it swollen.
He mostly was in a small group, sometimes with an enormous boar that never quarreled with him but with other smaller ones.
I think this could be Hobble, there is not really missing a part of the leg
like the other wounded one, 3 (Tripod) has. A quarter of Tripod's foot seems to have
fallen off after it was terrible swollen for some time.
In my next life I'll be vet or fairy-tale-teller! (for grown ups only).

It is amazing how well the pigs adapt to their handicaps.

Thank you Okaskera! I missed the red spot on his neck, colours
are not that clear in the shadow! How are the collared rds?

Yes, without vet and bandages etc. The are such strong and powerful animals,
like Limpy!

Adult female Great Spotted Woodpeckers have no red colour at the neck - but female Black Woodpeckers have.

Hi Bisky! You arrived first this time
The animals make a lot of noise as everything is frozen

CT 00.40.
He needed a bit of salt, the food was rather tasteless. Now he is listening and sniffing...what's up here?
Seems to be ok and he started eating again and now at 00.55 he run away.

He left! I think you made too much noise Ergee

And like here, without colours we could not even see male, female or young...

Hello Garina,

It seems that it is big loner again
