#pinemarten #polecat #martesMartes #MustelaPutorius A glimpse of a European polecat in the wild and a pine marten. Pay attention and concentrate as it really is a fleeting glimpse of these two nocturnal shy creatures.
The pine marten came within 4 metres of where I was sitting. I had camoflage gear and tripod and camera pointing in the other direction, no hide or blind. It had a good look at me and I had a good look at it. It decided not to pass me and went a few metres to cross the road, in a hurry but not spooked.

  • This is great to film both in the same area. I love wildlife,im in the UK. What country are you in? I have kept ferrets many years, the domestic cousins of the polecat. I've only seen one in the wild, unfortunately mostly dead ones on the roads. I've just subscribed and look forward to watching more of your films 😊👍
