Filming small mammals in Wepre

Filming small mammals in the wild is near impossible in most situations: most small species live out their relatively short lives as prey items.  There will always be something trying to eat them, so they stay under cover almost all of the time and all you see is the vegetation moving.  It’s very frustrating, but what do you do.  Emma, the director of Iolo’s Great Welsh Parks, had noticed small mammal activity in a wall near the park’s cafe, and after a bit of waiting quietly this clip was the result, rare clear views of a couple of different species at VERY close range.
