wildlife

Funny, last fall I examined a dead badger as well. I was not aware badgers lived in my area. But they do.

We have at least two, possibly 3, hedgehogs that come and see us to have their dinner each evening, here's a pic I took a couple of minutes ago, And here's one from a couple of nights ago. Someone has been ripping the bin bags open recently too and I think I've found the culprit;

Wondering if there's sufficient interest on here to keep a thread going on what wildlife we've come across during the day, out on the bike, in the garden, from work, whatever. Recent encounters for me were a ladybird on Sunday and a sparrowhawk on my way to work yesterday.
