Got myself a #Voopeak TC33 trail camera (pretty shitty actually, wouldn't recommend - video flickering, late recording startup, short videos at night for some reason, but hey, it's cheap!) and got myself quite some birds and animals by leaving it running (more like stand-bying) for a week.
For example, here Common Blackbird female ate whole earthworm, and then posed against the camera 😂 :
A fun shot of an Eastern pygmy-possum (Cercartetus nanus) on the camera-trap when I checked it today.
Probably the best photo of an EPP that I’ve ever landed.
I was going to describe the shot as “lucky”, but after eighteen months of toughing it out through repeated failures with the camera-trap in roughly the same area, “lucky” doesn’t feel like the right word.

I've pulled some of my camera-trapping equipment out of the field for cleaning and maintenance, and was amused again at the way the swamp-wallabies grind their teeth on the plastic knobs on some of the bolts. Some of them are almost chewed right through.
Does that behaviour mean that wallaby teeth grow continuously throughout their life, like rodents?
#RichmondPark is London’s biggest park! Large green spaces play a vital role in supporting urban #biodiversity and #cameratrapping offers a unique opportunity to explore how #wildlife and people interact.

After literally months of technical glitches and uncooperative wildlife, I have finally landed a not-too-awful shot of an eastern pygmy possum (Cercartetus nanus) on the camera-trap, captured here in the hollow inside an old burnt-out gum tree - a difficult setting to light.
