The Nutter clan sett is overgrown with nettles at the moment, more so than previous years making recording a bit tricky. But watch this space for previous footage of their antics from engaging with sheep to just being Nutters.🦡🦡🦡🦡🦡🦡🦡🦡

Going through trail cam footage from 2020 & came across this. The Nutter clan living up to their name. A bunch of Nutters!!

Fox, otter & badger on the old log. I'm constantly amazed by the amount of wildlife traffic at this location. Not just by these 3 species, but by many others from stoat, polecat, little egret, heron, kingfisher & mandarin ducks to name but a few.

I put a fair bit of stuff on here about the Nutter clan & their antics but given the opportunity & left in peace, all badgers are just as playful. These 2 are from the No-Tail clan. A clan that I've known for many years & earned their trust.

Badger, fox & chilled out sheep at the Nutter clan sett in March 24. Very overgrown with nettles the moment making recording decent footage a bit problematic. I've never known it so dense in the 10 years I've been monitoring here.

I capture quite a few species interactions at various locations but this has to be one of the best. I'll say no more. Just keep watching!

Whilst on the subject of species interaction, here is another clip of badger & otter interaction. The otter is most definitely the dominant of the species.

Due to the Nutter clan sett cam filming through a bed of nettles at the moment, thought I would retweet a bit of archive footage. 👍🦡🦡🦡🦡🦡🦡🦡

Three bucks on the patch yesterday and no fights, a sign that rutting is over 🦌🦌🦌 First Kirk, then Corky, who actually meets young Solo, and then the new lad, Mal, who is named after his malformed antlers, not my good friend Mal Ingham 🤣 🦌 Mal Ingham check him out 🦌🦌

Check out Roe Deer Diaries below by my mate Andy McWilliam. A fascinating insight into the secret lives of these illusive creatures. I monitor badgers, and he monitors a family of Roe deer. 🦡🦡🦡🦡🦌🦌🦌🦌

The Nutter clan mess around no matter where they are! Not by the sett this time, but by my woodland water bath. It must be infectious, as it seems to have rubbed off on a couple of rabbits.
