We had a left over chicken carcass last night, which I put out in the rain at 23:30.
I think it rained most of the night. This morning the chicken, most of it anyway, was still lying on the grass, which is always a disappointment.
I retrieved the dripping-wet trailcam and towelled it off, expecting to find nothing. What I did find was that I’d switch it to still photo and 24hr mode to test it after the fog episode and forgotten to change it back again.
Nothing had triggered the trailcam until 08:10 this morning and that suspect was a Crow. At least it wasn’t a (bloody) cat. Maybe the weather was too unpleasant for the foxes, or maybe the scent of food was masked by the conditions?
The crow made off with a beak full but Francine retrieved the other remnants so we can try again. 🙂
Interesting. We had very few rabbit appearances on our camera as opposed to the many we normally have, one by a badger, and no fox. Too awful weather?
