Camera Trapping

I have positioned a camera trap in various areas around central Scotland. The anticipation and revealing what has been caught is always very exciting.

A camera trap triggers by either using an infrared sensor, motion sensor or a light beam.

Camera trapping is a successful, non invasive method used in research for conservation and has been used for decades.

Here is some of the footage of the different species I have captured.

River Earn

Best known for their impressive dam building which they do by felling trees. They are excellent swimmers and can dive up to 15 minutes

European beaver (Castor fiber)
