Wildlife Watering Trough Cam

A Hillside Watering Point

Tucked into the wooded hills above Pınarbeyli village in Tokat province, this trough was built to give local wildlife a reliable place to drink. Its worn stone basin and timber edge sit among loose rock and scrub, framed by pine-covered slopes that roll toward the horizon.

Part of a Wildlife Camera Network

The trough is one of several fixed cameras run by the same conservation-minded operator across this corner of Erbaa district, each trained on a different vantage — nests, paths, and this watering point — to document everyday wildlife activity with minimal human presence.

What to Watch For

Visitors to the trough range from waterfowl like mallards to smaller birds and passing mammals drawn by the steady water supply. Because the site sits away from roads and buildings, the footage offers an unusually candid look at rural highland wildlife going about its routine.
