That's lovely Richard!
So several sorts of deer (babies so cute!), fox, hare? boar? birds trying to nest in camera or hunting insects, and the odd human doing work or dog walking There seems to be insect life at night too, not just raindrops.
Is that over a year? selected hghlights?

Yes, this is just some highlights of over 700 recordings just from one camera over the period of a year, that include animals, me+family+friends, and trespassers too (mostly mushroom collectors).
Deer is most abundant, some wild boars, hare, fox, badger, birds and insects. Also, not included in this short film, cats, dogs, squirrels and moose. Reptiles, amphibians, bats and fishes didn't make it to the movie ;)
EDIT: in this area I'm walking my cat on a leach :D the cat is deadly to the small creatures and birds.

Game cams and wildlife cameras are fun to watch.

We have spent hour and hour watching ours.

Thanks for sharing yours.
