  1. #GoodNews that the Little Penguin population around Granite Island is holding (though still with really low numbers (18) of nesting pairs). This is in spite of the forever ongoing Algal Bloom / Infestation.

    The best bit of info is what these guys do to maintain privacy :)

    "Once a week I take home a mountain of penguin poo and I know there's a camera inside that,"
    ...
    "They literally back up to it and cover it. We get about three nights of coverage before it's smothered."

    Given the infamous smell, THATS commitment.

  4. So today I learned something about #Trailcams. I set the new one up aimed at our pond, and in testing it today, it would only trigger when I was right up in front of it. So I leveled it and aimed it straight out, and it picked me up at about 75' away.

    I guess they have a sweet spot for the longer range detection I did not know about.

    WiFi/bluetooth capability is a game changer. I can check the #camera for new images from inside my house by a window that aims at the camera, or anywhere outside.

  6. New WiFi Trailcam just arrived, app downloaded, and it works exactly as advertised on my iPhone. I have it set up on the nest we found in our yard. We thought it was a Robin nest, but new thinking is that it is a Sparrow due to the small size of the eggs.

    I am going to check this later. So far momma bird shows up and immediately flies away. Camera about 4' away, need to determine if she is getting scared off by the cam.

    Hopefully more pics and video to come.

  8. A coyote conveniently hunts for 30 minutes in the intersection of two trailcams in a suburban backyard. Condensed to about 6 minutes.

  10. Parsingphase posts videos of wildlife in a backyard in Massachusetts, USA. The camera works in both daytime and at night, so there's a good variety of animals seen. You can follow at:

  12. People in Tasmania, are you looking for something to do next Sunday? How about a trip to Lilydale for the free Small Farm Living Field Day and the Lilydale Village Market?

    I'll be at the field day delivering a talk "Discover wildlife trail cameras: Unlock hidden wonders on your property" (more info in the link) & there will be lot of other speakers, demos & stalls.

  14. One we see a lot of on the is this , especially at night. Here, it was caught rummaging around the behind the bin.


  15. It would appear that the badger has left two eggs out for me.
    It would be greedy to take both of them, so I only take one and leave the other egg for him.
    Magpies are not the thieves we are often made out to be.
