Thanks Paul. I appreciate the feed back r.e. the editing. I've been trying a few things out to see if they add anything to the being experience. Glad you enjoyed the content.
AW, just caught the extra video with the badger cubs, BRILLIANT , just shows Ye how close nature can be with the sound of kids nearby, BTW Well done to the dog for not reacting, guid training!
Thanks Gerard. It was a real privilege to see them out in the day like that, we sat and watched them for about 15 minutes, and Lister controls himself so well.
What about consideration for landowners rules of access???? Uffmoor Wood for instance .. your dog should be on a lead everywhere except the designated off-lead area. It is clearly stated at every entrance point that camping is absolutely not allowed.. nor is the lighting of fires.. for obvious reasons in an ancient woodland. Was permission sought to set up camp etc? If it was, it would not have been given. Why just use the site on your own terms? Why pinpoint and expose the wildlife in turn drawing the attention of poachers?? This clip may not be specifically about Uffmoor but you have made a clip in which you have confirmed you are there doing what you do, what YOU enjoy doing but which you really shouldn't be at that location. Do you not think it worth pointing out to your followers that checking out rules of access to any land you intend to use is the FIRST thing to do? And to not pinpoint particular species of wildlife ... for their safety and wellbeing?
Hi Bev. With reference to this video, it was shot over Clent in an area designated as Open Access, meaning I can use it for recreational purposes, such as videography, and I do not have to stay on designated footpaths. With relation to Uffmoor, the video where I saw the deer, was filmed over 2 years ago, and the area I am in is/was a dogs allowed off lead area. Although private, Uffmoor is also open access land (according to OS maps), so I am allowed to use it for these purpose. I have never "camped" over Uffmoor", and we have had a conversation on site about my filming activities. (probably around the time of the other video that seems to have annoyed you) Dogs on leads is a weird one, there are local byelaws that state when a dog must be on a lead, and private land, access or otherwise is down to the landowner, however the general rule is that unless otherwise stated, dogs must me on a lead March to July. On public rights of way (footpaths etc) however the law is that the dog must be under control. With reference to the Deer video, its clear that Lister was under control. When it comes to wildlife, the main reason for going out is to capture on film and experience it. Not everyone can get out, and so they rely on videos like this to get a sense of what its like. I know Uffmoor has had a problem with poachers, but pretty much every visitor that is fortunate enough to capture an encounter, immediately gets it up on social media. Having said that, I was over at the weekend and have seen the state some people have been leaving it in, (scorched ground and litter at at least 3 locations that I saw) this behaviour is totally unacceptable. I'd be happy to work with you to create a video to capture the beauty of Uffmoor, explain what it means to use the are responsibly, and highlight why its important to look after these spaces.

Cheers Jay. Short and to the point as usual 😜.
I hate the amateur silly sudden zoom. Looks awful. Like a bullet point gone wrong. But I like the video for its content.
