Your day's wildlife

A Huntsman spider with a mean set of fangs.

Any idea what's been digging on my, er, 'lawn'?
About 28mm in diameter I reckon, and about 75mm deep before it goes off horizontally to the right.
Rat? Vole? Mole? Snake?
Anyone hazard a guess?

I'll get some batteries for my wildlife camera and see if I can get a picture tonight.

Vole and very handy for bumblebees to nest in.

Yes I take care of a good few ant nests and they were thriving over the last 5 years, but not this year and no sign of swarming yet. Odd.

Ants seem to be recovering a bit recently. Several new nests going on my grass.

A bird has flown in our delivery door and is showing no inclination to leave, probably because it's realised it's warm and dry.
