The wheel experiment attracted a few woodland visitors, with mice, red squirrels and even a pine marten stopping by to check it out... But @chrisgpackham.bsky.social definitely gave it the most effort! 🛞 🏃♂️

An incredible vid of a stag roaring in the snow by Anthony Williams!
“The beautiful red deer are hard to miss in the blanket of white snow that engulfs the winter landscape. But, if you can’t see them straight away, you will definitely hear the stags roar. Just don’t get too close”
#Winterwatch ❄️
A wonderful robin in the snow ❄️
Such charismatic little birds with their beautiful song! This video was taken by one of our viewers Phil Robinson, and we just love it! Thank you for sending it to us!

Wow! Check out this amazing video sent to us by Debbie Lawson of a kingfisher hovering & diving for prey! 🐟❄️
Kingfishers can dive at speeds of up to 25mph, & strike their fish prey with excellent precision! Not only are they beautiful birds, but they are highly skilled hunters too!

Take a few moments to unwind with the magic of swans in winter 🦢❄️✨

Take a look at the beautiful scenery and wildlife at our new location with Dara Mcanulty ❄️ 😍 A naturalist who grew up in the area, Dara knows NT Mount Stewart inside out and loves nothing more than to come here to take in its sights and sounds!
And we couldn’t agree more Dara ✨
#Winterwatch ❄️
Check out these ice skating ducks 🦆🧊
We love this video sent into us by Roslyn Smith! This was taken at Doune Ponds Nature Reserve, Stirlingshire. While some ducks waddle across the ice, others skid right across it! 😍
Please keep your photos and videos coming into us.

The wonderful wren 🐦🪶❄️
Despite their tiny size (weighing the same as an old £1 coin! 🥹) their song is mighty! Whilst they sing amongst the hedgerow they can be heard from hundreds of metres away! Listen out for them on your winter walks 🎶
