Many people have probably never thought about what the tangled depths of a man-abandoned thicket can hide. The habitat of small and large trees, shrubs, bushes, and grassy clearings is a great shelter, a place to raise offspring, and not least an inexhaustible storehouse of food sources for many animal species. Our film does not linger long on any one species. Within the framework of a kind of inventory, the viewer can get to know the warbler, the bullfinch, the lemon finch, the kingfisher, the greenfinch, the woodcock, the jay, the thorn-tailed gadfly, the ringed plover, the pheasant, admire the hiding harris for a few seconds and see, for example, the interesting nest-building habits of the common jay. We do not neglect the four-legged ones either. The film features the mysterious and rare wildcat, but also includes European roe deer, wild boar, red deer and hare. We collected the film's visual materials over a whole year in snow, frost, spring heat, storms, sweltering heat and autumn foliage. We hope you enjoy it!
