🦌 What’s New This Season?

A Fresh Hay Bale, Winter Carrots & Familiar Faces

The season kicked off with a brand-new hay bale, delivered around noon, and it immediately became the center of attention—and confusion! Viewers laughed as the deer seemed a bit cautious of the giant “heinakoll” (hay monster). Returning deer like Kaspar, Ulden, Brown, and Ervin have already made appearances—some bold, some shy, but all hungry.


👁️ A Global Community Watching Together

The international chat has once again brought together viewers from Estonia, Poland, Slovakia, Czechia, Germany, India, and beyond.

This community is a huge part of why the Red Deer Cam is so beloved. People come not only for the animals but for the warm, cheerful conversations.


🌲 Daily Winter Routine Begins

As temperatures drop across Saaremaa, feeding becomes essential. This season has already seen:

  • Large carrot deliveries (“76 łopat earlier, now 80!”)
  • A fresh hay bale rolled into place
  • Deer cautiously exploring the feeding area
  • Evening visits from bucks and does
  • Funny moments like slipping, sudden noises, and deer playing “hide and seek” behind the hay bale

It’s the perfect time to tune in—activity increases every day as the herd adjusts to the new feeding setup.
