Makov Animal Rescue Station
One of our favourites.
The Pond cam has remained throughout the year, with new-to-us maturing cygnets and fawns still at the bottle-feeding stage:
No table manners !!!
The second cam has been a White Stork nest, which I have not been following during Osprey season. The nest is very close to the ground because the Storks can't fly!
Today I find that the second cam has reverted to the birdie feeder we love - except it's been totally refurbished! (Wish they'd zoom out just a teeny tad.) Improved sound !!! And look who popped in a few seconds after I started the download
This was an incidental I came across on BirdwatchingHQ (you know how he hosts lots of cams unrelated to his own):
"Nocturnal thieves..."

Wonderful cresites. And how interesting ..... haven't seen a squirrel without its ear tufts ! And simple super tree sparrows !! Cheep cheep
Unknown said:haven't seen a squirrel without its ear tufts
Apparently:
As the red squirrel’s winter coat grows in they also grow their dapper little ear tufts. A few keep their ear tufts all summer as well, but most lose them in the spring moult. The function of the ear tufts is not certain – but they certainly look fabulous.
Kind regards, Ann
Iolo Williams has tweeted the arrival of Whooper Swans - maybe they'll be at Glaslyn soon
The cam callibration hasn't fixed the pixellating*-on-zoom - here is the Mute Swan couple:
*It's probably not pixellating but I don't know the correct tech term for the aberration
They certainly do look fabulous

What a white-tailed Red Squirrel! Sorry I couldn't get its face as well:
21 October
Morning - a dark-tailed Red Squirrel:
And !!! Don't all worship at once
TREECREEPER at the feeder:
The dark-tailed squirrel ws back but not the light-tailed - apart from that there were the usual small birds including Crestie, plus GSW.
I was going to delete a load of files but thought I'd skim thru quickly and look for "unusual" visitors, and I got one - isn't that lucky?!
EDIT
Glaslyn
The Mute Swan couple:
There were more, they swam around and up by the bridge for some time:

So Very glad you didn't delete the files Scylla, What a super array of tails and beaks. Thank you
Treecreeper was back several times next day - I thought I'd show it tree-creeping, obviously it's camouflaged:
I'm not really working today.
Lovely little mouse like birdie. I know they find crevices in tree trunks where they squeeze in to keep warm and safe at night. Thanks Scylla
