Thanks for the tips the ones of the wire fence were just where the badgers were comfortable feeding and to see how they would react to the flash, I'd only used a small led security light to start with.

these were taken with the same dslr camera trap system with flash and the lens was a 10-22mm same as with the owl, I will change it to a 50mm at some point

Well its been a year more or less and since then I have two hides up, a temporary tragopan and a permanent one big enough for two people, here are some of the images I have managed via my A9 and the 200-600mm lens and at night with a flash, the tawny owl was taken via a dslr camera trap set up.

Stu not been on here much but it looks like you have been busy (y) It will be great to how you and the missis get on in your travels on the photography bus :)(y)

Trail camera out all week with a recent lamb casualty as bait for the buzzards, new arrival in the evening and night time was the tawny owl which visited every day to feed on the free meal

Thanks I'm hoping for good things for the area, I'll take a look at the monal hide too

Thanks for the info on your use of these hides, I'm going with the chair hide for now and at a future date will look into maybe the V6 which offers a little more space for extra kit gear etc

I am thinking of getting a portable photography hide from Tragopan, the lagopus chair with either a cammo tent cover the 3D blanket, I've bought the chair and the 3D blanket as the cammo cover was out of stock. Anyone who has experience of using Tragopan hides etc, could you give your thoughts...

Another image from the trail camera, hoping to sit out and get some photo's with my camera, tripod and a bag hide.

I've not posted for a while but here is an image of three buzzards on the trail camera from a few days ago, with the lease sorted to rent the land I'm going now to try and get things up and running for spring/summer 2023. Both using my A9 and trying out dslr camera trapping, species seen as well...

I'd be interested to see how you get on with this as some know on here I'm setting up an hide at some point on land I rent..

I have some prints framed on my walls and plan some in the future, mainly ones that seem to stand out from a days trip out but I've done some for other people too, I've a cup with one of my photos on it and a couple of canvasses too plus...

I'm not sure if this helps but I think a mate of mine uses some kind of larsen trap to catch the pigeons in, perhaps google it and I'll ask him about it and get back to you, its a shame if you have to stop especially with all the time and effort it involved setting it up.

A few of the visitors to the field

Got myself another piece of land to rent to start my project off again, its basically grazing land that's been left to go wild somewhat with some gorse growing along one side, and a line of trees on one edge. The owner has seen Fox sometimes with cubs plus Buzzard around the area so I put a...
