ESTONIAN WILD PIG CAM 2010 -2011

ct.1802



Some time before a fox came from the right side, far behind the hayrack..went into the forest
at the left side and after a while he went back to the right side were the
path is.

Aha, they brought more bread??
Independence partu for the piggies too!
They seems to smell that someone not so familiar has just been there

ct 18.15
Be careful..I tell you: I smell people!

Ergee, I am glad that you got the pictures of the family that visited.

I came to the computer when the father was on the ground pretending to be eating like a pig, but I could not make the screen capture soon enough. Dad needs to come back for an encore!

Now I heard steps, very close - but no one came in front of the cam...

It was hard to tell what the brought. Something inside quite a small plstic box that seemed to be sticky. It was really not much anyway...
I did get pics but the are not better that Ergees´...

A better pic, where "dad" is on hands and knees on the ground, is in LK , made by GerPa...

But is he not a bit too tiny to be dad??

At 23.37 a rather short call, a bit hoarse, nothing to see, no animals,
probably an owl.
23.48 same call, 23.50 also. Just 1 call.
But now a kind of furry-fighting sound is heard.


ct 23.53 Just a short moment I could see a furry...

Now I listened several owl-voices but nothing matches with the calls here.
Probably it is the call from a furry..the last sound at 00.20.. about 1 time in 5 minutes...

Thanks for the report!

And now the cam is gone again

hope they can restart cam soon.

And one mama pig is very fat already

but this is not aprill yet

They can well give birth in March and that would mean that the mama pig would be way over halfway in the pregnancy. 3 months and 3 weeks it takes....

thanks
i wondering how fast these antlers grow...

These buck´s antlers grow quite slowly as it seems to be a yearling that will develope small antlers.
But bigger bucks need 4-5 months for developing their antlers. 50-150 grams of bone per month...

A story without many words, 26 Februari, between ct 1.12 and ct. 1.26.

last pic ct.1.26

The roe deer were looking around and listening, from the hayrack came
an animal but is was not clear what it would be...
Than the furry came from the right side, from behind the cam. Roe deer
just had left...

Sooo many roe deer!!
Thanks for the pics

I just opened the cam but there is "someone" trapped :(

Thanks ergee - lovely pics!! I can't get enough of the deer, they are so sweet

The cam is working this morning, what a nice surprise!
It is -9C in Ilmatsalu, maybe this is the reason
And yes, another mange furry is trapped at least it won't be freezing there.

I just heard a fox in the distance - they are very vocal now, also here around our house.
But the strange thing is that ravens are really noisy - while it still is pitch dark They have not showed up on the cam but they are very close.

little bit snowing in ilmatsalu,too

oi,two deers have breakfast

how many small birds,whole feeding ground are covered by small birds...they have come from south already

And they are already singing their spring songs too

food is already brought and small bird chirping is so lovely
