Great video of a Weasel coming out of a Longworth Trap, by Amanda Wilson:
These fantastic little mustelids do occasionally get in to these small mammal traps, which proves just how small there are!
Montgomeryshire has a fantastic range of mammals, from the tiny Pygmy Shrew to the great Red Deer, from aerial masters such as pipistrelle bats to expert swimmers like otters. With approximately 40 species of mammals in Montgomeryshire, there is plenty to see, without being overwhelming. I hope this blog inspires you to not only keep your eyes open for our wonderful mammals, but report your sightings too!

Hog attack
It's Hedgehogs again, but how could I not post this amazing footage of a vicious attack which took place over my feeder, in the early hours of this morning!
I can confirm that both walked away seemingly unhurt!

Merlin & the Hedgehog
I know it is another post about Hedgehogs, but when you can get such great views of them right by your back door, it is hard not to be entranced! This time I would like to share a moment from last night when my old dog, Merlin, showed how dogs and Hedgehogs can mix!
It's a good job my other dog, Cerrig, was out with me (Glow-worm hunting!), as he is not so tolerant. After two years, he is still frightened of them and would have been shrieking his head off, had he been there!
