Wildlife & Countryside Services Reviews

"I have had great personal service. This has given me a warm [on this hot day] feeling.\r\nI have had some success with videos. I will try to add one.\r\nI do wonder about the Vicar's chickens now that I see I have a fox coming. She lives close to me."

"I've recently been interested in bat detection, and was persuaded to purchase an Echo Meter Touch 2 plug-in for my mobile phone. I ordered it from Martin and it arrived very quickly. I think I've been out with it each night since, and am slowly building up a picture of which bats are around, which is a lot more than I'd suspected! I would certainly buy from Martin again."

"I am new to the trail camera scene and due to age and health problems, I was finding it hard to read and understand the vast amount of information that is on the Web. I contacted Trail Camera UK and had help from, both Martin and his partner. I explained that I was a registered sighted person and found reading text w difficult for me. Both Martin and his partner was patient and keen to help me make a decision on what camera would meet my needs They made the purchase easy for me without making me feel stupid when I was finding something difficult. On the who very pleased with the help and the purchase of the Browning Recon Force Elite HP5"

"I was recently looking for advice about the best type of trail camera\/camera trap to buy to put in my back garden to capture some of the wildlife there. After a reasonably extensive google search I happened upon Martin's website, downloaded his free eBook and signed up for his email newsletters. After reading his advice and after a few more weeks conducting further research and receiving personal email advice from both Martin and Cheryl I bought a kit from them: a Browning Spec Ops Elite HP5 Trail Camera with Eneloop Pro rechargeable batteries and 32GB SD card together with a charging unit and ground spike. This all arrived soon after (with a specific posting date requested by me to make sure I was home) and since then I have been experimenting with it in various positions in my garden. I have already captured some great pictures of a some birds and small mammals - the best pdf which so far has been a fox (photo attached). Throughout the whole period Martin has been super-helpful and so far I am very pleased with the camera and all the advice I have received and continue to receive. Simply put: very highly recommended for what I needed."

"After lots of um..aah..what if..I eventually settled on a Browning Patriot. Lots and lots of excellent advice and feature descriptions\/comparisons from Martin Bailey. These allowed me to make an informed choice. Such a different experience to buying from most retailers.\r\nIt was money very well spent. Within days of setting up in my garden I had superb videos and stills of a heron visiting my pond and eating the frogs. A fox I didn't know was a regular visitor, and much more. I could completely fill the review site! Now I use my cheap (Amazon\/chinese) camera to get a basic look for activity in a particular location. If anything (poor contrast, badly lit, etc) is seen, I put out the 'proper' Browning Patriot."

Martin and Cheryl offer a fantastic and friendly service. They moved quickly to ensure we received our bat detectors in time for some last minute surveys and their prices are highly competitive. We will certainly be returning for all our future equipment purchases. Thanks from all at Babec!
