Lots Of Roe Deer On Trail Cam

Last week I moved my trail camera to a spot where my mum had seen two Roe deer last week. It was quite close to a cycle trail so I had to be careful to hide it so that it wasn't seen. I found a well used deer track, and walked along it until I found an opening where there was an obvious amount of Roe deer droppings as well as footprints and placed my camera on a pine tree. I dropped some apples as bait and left it for a week.


When I went to check it yesterday (Saturday) I was pleased to see that all the bait was gone. I checked and I got a family of 3 Roe deer (2 Does' and 1 button Buck), they obviously used the track often because I got them about 5 times over the week.




I managed the blend the photo of me, and the photo of a Roe deer together in the same place to work out the scale. 


I also got a Fox, a lot of Squirrels and a Rabbit.
