Sunday 14th August 2016









Another scorcher of a day.
A day spent working on the camera wiring. More surprises. Who would have thought the pond camera cable would be chewed. Thankfully I was able to cut and rejoin using amalgamated tape and hey presto it burst into life.
One of the bird boxes was packed full of spider webbing. Removed some but not all as spotted the spider still using the box. Upshot of the day is all eight cameras are now working to the hide monitor. Switch on will be on Tuesday as need to tweak with a couple of cameras and re-position one. Good news though, interestingly my problems has been nothing to do with damp but chewed cable. Once project is complete all the cable will be above ground and encapsulated in hosepipe with the exception of the three cables across the lawn. These will be buried.
Managed to find time for a spot of pond dipping this afternoon, good to see plenty of nymphs, 13 in total today.
Enjoyed another bbq tonight and a bit of bat detecting.
