Grouse cock nibbling at birch buds
Grouse; Black grouse Teder Tetrao tetrix
If you notice large splendid birds in winter on birches at forest verges then you have met grouses. If however similar but a little larger birds are busy in pine stands then instead capercaillies.
You will see no deer at the feeding site at noon but recently two-legged creatures made a guest appearance.
When the deer site was ”clean” of deer we decided together with RMK hunting specialist Uno Vait to go on camera ourselves and talk about the animals.
We talked about how the deer once came to Saaremaa and where they can be seen today, how their hooves work and how it is with their antlers.
In addition to the deer talk all kinds of other creatures that have been encountered on the deer ground and what feats they have performed there. also came up.
But have a look at the video yourself!

The first encounter with the otter was about 10 days back and was very brief
Jackal; Golden jackal Šaakal or harilik šaakal Canis aureus
The jackals were missing from camera view for some days. Were the IR lamps actually ”visible” to the sensitive canines or did they sense them in some other way?
