Wildlife Whisperer aka Simon King Cams

The foxes just seem to chase the pigeons off GR, I have never seen one of the foxes actually go for the pigeons, I think Gill keeps them so well fed they have no need to go for the pigeons which is nice, I think the Magpies actually annoy the foxes more for some reason.

I think this may be Fleur feeding, I caught this when I first got in and if it was Fleur she nearly devoured the whole bowl of food, but as its a backside view I am not definite it is her but on the size it may be.

I have just taken this one and I think it's Pickle having a good feed from the other bowl.

Just had a look LW hoping to catch the Foxs, and get a video, but they must have eaten everything, none in site
WS

Good photos Littlewid, your timing is brilliant.

Thanks Guy's I haven't been able to check the cam till now and I have missed all the action but I have just been watching a little Mouse running around but he is too tiny to relly get a picture of but he has been quite funny, I think he has been making the most of having the garden to himself.

All quiet in the garden this morning but I think I am a little late in checking in

littlewid-x-

I've had a couple of looks in at night, but not seen any of the Foxs, but it was late, and frosty so they'd proberbly gone to earth
WS

I confess I haven't checked any of the cams for ages, the badgers have been around as I pick up the Tweets, so I must check them properly.

Lai

It's not easy to keep up with all the cams guys and with the wildlife it can be hit and miss anyway. I will try and check the foxes before I go to work but it can be a tad early for them but I will have a look and post if I see them.
Must admit I haven't checked Mikes Badgers for a while which is not good of me, I will see if they are around now.

Nope, no Badgers around at the moment, the cam is on but it looks as if it is in a different postion and in the middle to the right of the pic it looks as if a bomb has gone off, so not sure if Mike has changed the loction of the cam or it's just the pic we are getting this evening.

Strangely that's what I got last night when I checked on my mobile, will have a look at Mike's Twitter page and see what's going on.

Lai

Glad i'm not the only one who thougt it was odd Lai. I don't do twitter so it would be good to know whats happening or if thats normal.

littlewid-x-

Sorry didnt get on to Twitter today but on my list of things to do tomorrow. Too busy messing with Christmas gifs and carols

Lai

I'm not getting anything this evening Lai, the cam is just buffering, so maybe it's down at the moment

littlewid-x-

I Tweeted Mike last night Littlewid and he replied saying he's back today and yes it was off. Should be back on tonight.

Fingers crossed!

Lai

Sorry Lai I missed your last post. Thanks for contacting Mike, good to know the cam is back on again, I will try and have a look in tonight to see if they are around.

Just checked on our foxes and they are all hiding elsewhere at the moment. There have been a couple of pigeons in feeding but not much else. Gill has put up a new feeder though, the one with the green top and the pigeons seem to like that one.

Thanks Littlewid. Gill's garden always looks so lovely. I haven't caught the foxes on cam for ages but they are definitely still around so it's all about timing

Lai

I looked in this morning, and there's a Fox lying partly under the bushes, it seems to be sleeping, but it looks soaked, and although I can see it breathing, I only saw it move slightly once.
Vid 1min 17secs


One Fox came in, and had a quick look, but it the went away. I will try to check later to se if its moved


WS

Just watched your video WS and the little fox is breathing normally, the coat looks a little damp but so does the coat of the fox that came in to have a peek. I believe the fox on the shed is our little shed sleeper and he does sleep for hours up there and hardly ever moves until he is ready to get down. The Twitter feed reports him as being up there and it's a tweet from Gill so if anything had of been wrong I believe she would have said, so I am happy he is just sleeping as normal under the ivy and you have managed to get a great capture of him whilst he is dozzing which is really nice as when I have looked in just lately I have missed them so it was great to see him WS and it's given me a huge smile for New Years Eve

littlewid-x-

Glad you enjoyed that LW. I was just a bit concerned as I have'nt seen them sleeping like that before. Glad everything was OK
WS

You mean this one LW. The shed sleeper. Now this looks a much more comfy position


WS

The shed sleeper's back, and it's nice, and dry for a change


WS

Those are great captures of our Shed Sleeper WS and sometimes he is a little guy who likes to live on the edge......or sleep on the edge I have checked this cam on and off but not seen the foxes, I just keep missing their regular visits, hopefully at the weekend I will catch them in the morning, so seeing our little Shed Sleeper has really cheered me up, he is adorble

littlewid-x-

Just checked on our Fox family and they are not in the garden at the moment, however a little bit of info. Our main "shed sleeper" is Art, he is Fleurs partner and the dad of Brun our little male fox cub, Brun too sleeps on the shed a fair bit but not as much as Art, however, the fox in your last pictures WS is Brun that is having a nap on the shed, he is a little cutie isn't he

littlewid-x-

Thanks for the info Littlewid. I am sure if anything happened to any of our fox family Gill would post via Twitter. She's good at Tweeting when she can.
