Vahest on kohe hea aasta, karu aasta. Minu selle aasta üheteistkümnes karu nägemine. Mõni on kestnud alla sekundi, kord nägin kahte, mõni on tuhatnelja läbi metsa pagenud. Täna sain binokliga paar minutit jälgida otti lonkimas, Pildi jaoks lähenemine talle väga ei meeldinud ja otsustas metsa tagasi minna. Some year are good and some are good bear years. This is my eleventh bear sighting in 2019. Some of them lasted under a second, once I saw two of them. Today I had luck to observe bear for couple of minutes thru binoculars. When I started to get closer for better photo - it went back to forest.

Jillian and Martijn from Holland came to Lahemaa to see Estonian wildlife wonders with Gran Treks. They were in Lahemaa 13.03-02.04. Most of the days we spent in Lahemaa. We had really great mornings, nice days and eventful nights. We saw how spring takes over winter - lot of migrating birds. Last lynx and first bear tracks on disappearing snow. Their dreams and reality became quite close. We saw a lynx and bear and we heard wolf pack howling. We met capercaillies and black grouses. For couple of days Martijn and Jillian visited Soomaa NP and Alam-Pedja. Together we were a day and night in Alutaguse National Park. Best encounters were lynx, bear, ural owl, pygmy owl, tengmalms owl, morning cranes, snow buntings. Regular sights were raccoon dogs, foxes, beavers, white tailed eagles. Fields were crowded by white fronted goose, barnacle goose, bean goose, lapwings. All photos by Martijn Struijf, Jillian Groeneveld, Ave Kruusel and trapcam Üks rajakaamera ei saatnud pilti. Läksin kontrollima. Õhtune aeg, läksin vaikselt põllu servast fotikas üle õla. Rajakaamera juures tuli meelde, et pult jäi autosse. Kaamera pildistab ka pilte saatmata edasi ja tahtsin ikka kontrollida, et kas mäger oli pildile jäänud. Võtsin mälukaardi rajakaamerast ja panin telefoni, Seisan....ootan....laeb pilte....tunnen, et keegi vaatab mind. Lasen telefoni näo eest madalamale, mäger vaatab 4m pealt vastu. Liigutada ei saa, kaamera on jalge juures maas. Proovin telefoniga videot teha ja samal hetkel telefoni aku saab tühjaks :) Õnneks tuli punarind mägra selja taha laulma ja mäger pidas targemaks korraks urgu minna. Sain kükitada, kaamera palge panna ja 5 sekundi pärast oli ta tagasi. Mina sain paar kaadrit ja mäger sai minust lõhna ninna. Kõik said midagi. Taanduti urgu. Mõnus...aitähh One trailcam stopped sending photos, went to check. Was nice quiet evening. At trailcam I realized that I left cam remote to the car. I had to remove memory card from cam and download photos to phone. I stood up...waiting.....downloading...then I realize that someone is watching me. I lower the phone, badger looks at me from 4 meters. No way I could reach my big camera on the ground, I tried to make video with phone and same moment phone battery died. Luckily robin started singing behind badger and badger thought it would be safer to back up to sett. It gave me moment to squat and to reach my camera. Badger came back in 5 seconds. I got the photo and badger got my smell. Everybody got something. It returned to sett. Thank You  Pühapäeval läksin koduranda tildreid ujuvvarjega luurama aga ei kedagi. Kaugusest aga paistis midagi palju huvitavamat - järvekaur. Hiilideks läks lõpuks nii sügavaks, et pidi juba ujuma hakkama varjega, keerasin ringi kuna maatuul oleks natuke liiga kiiresti mind merele viinud. Nikon Df 70-200 F2.8 EX1.4, Tänud Ave! Went out with floating hide to check waders - nothing. Instead I saw a black-throated diver. Nikon Df 70-200mm F2.8 lens x1.4  Minu tänased liigid Eru tornist
