I recently bought a thermal monocular and initially experimented with this on 30th March 2025.
Last night, I had an extended visit to the site with my thermal monocular and managed to “see” 4 Red Foxes and a Reeves’ Muntjac in complete darkness. I am now hoping to rediscover the local Badgers.
Here are some images of Red Foxes ....
Whilst I was out, I also heard both a male and a female Tawny Owl and had a very brief view of a single flying bird. This was a very welcome addition to my site list for 2025 taking it to 40 species. Unfortunately, I was unable to locate the birds with the thermal monocular and capture any photos.
This was my first record of Tawny Owl for some years and follows a series of records in close proximity to my flat between 28th July and 9th September 2024 …. see here.
Site totals for 2025 to date (2024 totals in brackets):
Birds = 40 (49)
Total species list for the site
Birds = 69
Love nature .... act now
