New wood mouse footage!
Last night, I set my trail camera up in my garden. I was expecting wood mice and by the time I had set the camera up, put some seeds down and waited for a few minutes the mice were arriving! Here is a video I got, however it is very short but I hope to get some more footage tonight, I hope you enjoy.

New badger footage!
After returning to the badger sett on Saturday, for the third time, I finally got the footage I wanted! Previous times when I visited I had the settings wrong on my trail camera so the videos didn’t come out very well or I just got pictures. I got this footage with my motion detect trail camera after placing a pile of nuts in front of it. I hope you enjoy the videos and click here for more badger footage which is on my YouTube channel.

Warwickshire walk.
Last Saturday, I went on another long distance walk ,which was 18 miles, with my camera around the Warwickshire area. I only brought a small compact camera with me this time as I didn’t want to be carrying my heavy camera around. I saw lots of interesting things including my first froghopper (Philaenus spumarius) larvae froth. I hope you enjoy the pictures!

Froghopper larvae froth on a nettle.
Froghoppers are small, brown insects that can jump great distances if threatened. Whilst jumping they hold their wings together like a tent over their body. Their larvae are most commonly seen coated in a mass of froth (also known as cuckoo spit) on plant stems. The froth protects the larva from predators as it feeds on young leaves and shoots, and it also stops it from drying out. It also has a very bitter taste!
Lots of lovely wildflower meadow at Kingsbury water park.
