We have a great picture thread stickied, well I'm creating another sticky thread dedicated to videos. I can copy in videos lost in the archives if I'm informed of the link.

A friend has a hedgehog that comes in through his cat flap to steal the cats food. Here's a link to some poor quality video of my unlikely dining partners:

How does one video so many? Zoom out and one can't see anything, zoom in and one sees a few of them. Pan around a lot and it makes for bad viewing experience. With this in mind here is the first one
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWR9zHT-Jbo

This 2nd one is here for the sound. It is dark in the wood and the camera is on night setting. I was at the edge of the wood. I'm sure the sound would have been more intense in the centre of the flock, but I didn't want to give the swallows to many reasons to rise. This is a young wood and the carpet of swallows was about 5m above me.

This video contains a very rare insight into the behaviour of Dublins urban Foxes.

Outside my front door a few days ago, wondering what it is, seemed tame, Ferret, Mink ?

I would also say a ferret, often kept as pets, perhaps this little fella escaped from his cage!!

Love the fox video also, I leave my leftover food out for 'the fox' every night. Best fed fox in Dublin

Hi Wildirishswan,
If you want to embed e.g your fox video from the following link

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RuGHy63vTfM

to embed the video in the post, click on the youtube link in the toolbar above the textbox and then paste the last part of your link i.e. RuGHy3vTfm between the youtube tabs.
I hope that makes sense!

Have just spent the past hour looking for my badger video from 1998. Four badgers playing, scratching and collecting bedding in a hedgerow sett in high summer. Lost
