Coldstream resident Laurie Patterson set up cameras around her home and property two years ago and compiled some fantastic clips of wildlife captured using a wildlife corridor that runs through her backyard and up into the surrounding hills.

A large variety of different wildlife are seen in the video in all seasons and times of the day using the corridor, part of which is a set of stairs up a hill.
