I hike, I bike, I bird.
A combination of videos of any of these three subjects, plus some random stuff as well.
Important to note: all birds (and other animals shown in the videos) are WILD and FREE. No captive animals, no caged animals, no domesticated animals. I sometimes use hides to get close to birds and mammals, but the animals are always wild and free.

European Wildcat coming closer and closer to investigate
A real European Wildcat (Felis silvestris) coming close to investigate what we are doing in its territory. This Wildcat is as wild as they come, filmed in Northwestern Spain where these cats have a stronghold. You can clearly see the car driving by (@0:36) is not appreciated, indicated by the annoyed twitching of the tail. This is the first of several European Wildcat videos to come, more information will follow in the next episodes.

Nice video, glad you had success. Pretty sure that’s a porcupine in the tree, not a beaver. 😊
Correct.
You did see the id of the animal at the top of the screen, right?
Great video & birds! I hope to visit SZB in Feb 2025 for the first time. I was wondering how you were getting real time info on the birds besides visiting the center?
There is a Telegram app group for SZ sightings; you can sign up through this invite link: telegram.saxzim.net

It is lovely, but only in the wild. It is not a good pet, very bad smell for one…
@hikerbikerbirder I will wash her 😂
😂😂😂
I live in the North of the Dordogne, in a hamlet on the edge of the forest. I am used to placing a photgraphic trap, and I often see the presence of the genette. But otherwise, it is almost impossible to see the presence of the animal.
It is a very difficult animal to see and film indeed… Shy and nocturnal is a difficult combination to find any animal.
Sweetie, looking so majestic and 🥰
