The rains that started at the end of last summer led to a crop failure in the forage fields intended for the roe deer, and the deer looked for higher and drier places to stay in.

Night guest

 

Great tit       Rasvatihane     Parus major

 

Last night there were slight snowdrifts outside and 6 degrees of cold. A couple of days ago I checked  the nestboxes in my garden and  found to my joy that all three seemed to be used by birds in winter too.

I managed to snap a photo of one lodger without disturbing – a quick click with the mobile. A great tit, who else.

Roedeer             Metskits or  kaber         Capreolus capreolus

 

A long peaceful record of the doings of the roe deer flock near the salt lick and in the forage field that sadly was almost destroyed by the very wet weather last year. As the ground freezes we again see animals moving. The snow cover hid the tracks and smells of people who had  been there earlier and the web  camera allows us to see the activities of the animals without disturbing them.

Researchers have found in their studies that quite as in the relationships among humans and other hominids, acts are used with certain meanings among birds in pair interactions and so it is with ravens

 

Raven        Ronk or kaaren     Corvus corax

 

People in the old days believed that today on Candlemas day (February 2nd) the ravens put the first ”log” in their new nest, or checked their last year’s nest in the Candlemas month – if and how much mending it would need.
