Our garden at night has a constant frog chorus as probably 100 frogs gather to mate in our small wildlife pond. It's a truly amazing sight and sound!Enjoy the video!

Marloes area

A walk with the dogs around cliffs & mere this afternoon, 3 Gannets inshore, 1 Ringtail Harrier, heading towards St Ann`s Head. 1 male Kestrel, still large numbers of Lapwing (1,000+) 3 Golden Plover in with them. Alas no Glossies, or S/E Owl. On our garden feeders - 1 female Blackcap.

Field vole

Field vole, seen at Bosherston lily ponds on wednesday afternoon. Being such a cold day it seemed strange to see this little vole out and about but it was in the sunshine Jan Hannaford

Mating foxes

Pembrokeshire is unmistakenly a good place for wildlife, even in frosty january 2012.
These two local foxes obviously feel very much at home.
Mating foxes is not a sight that we see every day.
Looking forward to fox cubs in the spring.

Yours kindly
