Pembroke Millpond

Over the last couple of years I have been monitoring otter activity on the Wildlife Trust, Pembroke Upper Mill Pond Reserve at two artificial holts using a couple of trail cameras. In addition to the, now, several hundred video clips of otters I have accumulated numerous clips of other visitors to the immediate vicinity of the holts. The video footage, of variable quality, both daytime and at night, consist of 15 or 20 second clips of the bird and mammal species listed below. The figures in brackets represent the approx number of video clips. 

If any followers of the Pembrokeshire Wildlife blog would find the material useful in any way, then they are welcome to copies. Please make a request in the Comments section below if you would like to see the footage then I can arrange to forward a copy of the material that amounts to approx. 30+GB of data in total.
