Three weasels were recorded in the camera box last month. This handsome male is not one I have seen before but he visited only once. I have added a slow motion replay at the end of the video to get a better look because he moves so fast. He looks a bit lighter in colour than most.
Two females turned up in April, again both new to the box. This one came several times over a few days.
She gave a very good view of her gular (under chin) spots so I can be sure she is new.
The other female ran through only once but even so I can see her gular markings are very different.
There have been very few mice and voles in the box so that probably explains the relative lack of weasels compared with this time last year. I hope the voles will move in as the meadow grows and attract more weasels and kestrels.
