Further recordings from 8 October also showed a cat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We ended up with three photos of cats, but we cannot tell whether they show the same individual appearing more than once or different cats passing through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not quite the wildlife sightings we had hoped for this time! \ud83d\udc08<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What can a night camera reveal?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Camera traps allow us to observe activity in an area without needing to be present. They can capture animals moving through the landscape after dark, offering glimpses of activity that might otherwise go unnoticed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of course, not every recording brings a new wildlife discovery. Sometimes, the camera captures familiar visitors instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although these images do not provide enough information to identify the individual cats or determine how many were present, they still document animal activity on the river terrace during the monitoring period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1080\" data-id=\"4771\" src=\"https:\/\/mavronero.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/3-68.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4771\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mavronero.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/3-68.png 1080w, https:\/\/mavronero.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/3-68-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/mavronero.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/3-68-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/mavronero.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/3-68-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/mavronero.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/3-68-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/mavronero.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/3-68-600x600.png 600w, https:\/\/mavronero.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/3-68-100x100.png 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1080\" data-id=\"4770\" src=\"https:\/\/mavronero.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2-78.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4770\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mavronero.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2-78.png 1080w, https:\/\/mavronero.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2-78-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/mavronero.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2-78-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/mavronero.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2-78-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/mavronero.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2-78-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/mavronero.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2-78-600x600.png 600w, https:\/\/mavronero.cy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2-78-100x100.png 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The value of keeping watch<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wildlife monitoring takes patience.
