4 New Animals

 I was originally going to name this post '3 new animals' but after today's outing, it is going to have to be 4. Every animal in this post is new to the blog so they are quite exciting. The first dates and times are still wrong on the camera trap - I forgot to change them.

Sheep

The most boring animal on today's post are sheep. We have had cows before but never this animal.





Treecreeper
The most exciting animal we got on the camera trap was a treecreeper. After a few seconds, it flies in and - as its name suggests - creeps up the tree. It is always nice when we get a new bird on the camera trap.


Grey Wagtail

Sadly, that was all we got on the camera trap. Anyway, while on our way home we saw a grey wagtail hopping along the canal. The light was starting to fade so the photos are a bit blurry.


Egyptian Goose

 Today, we were searching for another rare bird (coming tomorrow in another post) and thought we wouldn't see any after a while. However, after a while, we did see them. Once those birds had flown away I noticed something about the geese (which I thought were some early greylag geese). I noticed that they were a whole different species - one I had never seen before. They were Egyptian geese. 



That is all for today's post. Like I said earlier, stay tuned for another post coming tomorrow at 10:am where I go in search of another rare bird. Remember to leave a comment and thanks for reading!
