  1. Sadly mate it’s a sign your battery is on its way out, the current drop when you open the door and interior lights come on is enough to trigger the alarm, so if the battery starts dropping amps because of the cold it will cause a false trigger and set it off yours dropped 3 times in the night so is not in the best of health I would guess ?
  2. I,d say probably down to territory sizes when we had a situation in Scotland some years ago the one we were after would move off the estate after a while but the wildcats seemed to come through the same runs on a daily or every couple of day cycle so guess once you find an area that holds them it would be relatively easy to get pics ?
  3. Even house cats started out as wildcats one of the reasons they are so successful is there all slags ??
  4. Good day to defrost the freezer, all the foods up on the deck still frozen ??
  5. I think in truth there are a few breeding programs with some pure blood but most of those in the wild have a dash of domestic in there make up now, bound to be a few little pockets way out from humans that have stayed pure and there are groups that go out and sterilise the farmcats so maybe there is still hope ?
  6. We’re also on overhead power and I,ve lost count of the power cuts we have had this year already ?
  7. Morning walk one dead swan looks asleep but dead as a dodo bird flu or just the cold I don’t no lots of rabbits out travelling some way to find food as is Charlie ?
  8. Getting worse truth be told they have replaced a lot of paid staff with volunteers, bridge keepers used to mow the towpaths and maintain there bridges now none of it gets done, does my nut in looking at lol the dry rusty gears on the bridges that used to be greased regularly, now they break quite often causing blockages ?
  9. Sort of we got swing bridge near me that swells up in hot weather and fails sometimes half open Blocking road and canal they still haven’t thought to put a solar water pump on it with water from the canal, got so pissed off with it last year almost done it myself ?
  10. Yes but they do open the bridges for me ?
  11. Out of likes mate but nice one, I’ve got nine so far in a boat ?
  12. I do like goat always surprises me it’s taken so long to catch on especially as Billy’s are good for nothing else always had a big Jamaican community in Bristol and curry goat was one of my favourite takeaways ?
  13. Nice one Kev you deserve all you get mate, love it ?

    Rats

    I like them to ?
  15. I used to get lots more in town than out here, one shot if your lucky before there gone This was one of my favourite squirrel spots less than a mile from the mall at cribs causeway and the almondsbury m4 m5 interchange very rarely had a a walk there without bagging one or two
  16. And dwarfism if you count mushroom ?
  17. Funny thing I,ve moved from the city into a big shooting community and the balance in nature is massively different, there are far less squirrels and magpies here because people shoot them but the small song bird population is fantastic we’re as in the city the magpies wiped out every nest in my yard from great tits to swifts, couldn’t seem to make a dent shooting and trapping them ?
  18. I think the gender of the offspring makes a difference, females fertile males not is the general consensus I believe they used to be bred by the victorians and also suffered dwarfism known as pumards or something similar ?
  19. Lining the cup in the nest mate, longtail tits use a lot of spider web in there nests so they can stretch as the brood grows ?
  20. It is mate but the spotty one would be accepted much more than the black one if they were separated ?
