The Capercaillie lek camera is situated in Lääne-Virumaa, Estonia. It is a remotely operated camera that can be panned, tilted and zoomed by an operator. Not always that camera is operated, because it diminishes transmission quality. Male capercaillies are not on the lekking site for 24 hours a day, but arrive at sunset. The arrival is accompanied by the loud rattling sound of the wings. In the morning, the capercaillies display begins already in the dark – 2-3 hours before sunrise – and lasts until mid-morning. Afterwards, the males leave to rest and feed in the neighbouring areas.
