Badger
Yesterday out walking he dog we met a badger .I have never seen one alive in the wild .
It was unconcerned by our approach and trundled to its sett as cool as cucumber .
I am aware that badgers are not timid and have a powerful bite so so kept our distance .
But what a pleasure to see this beautiful animal .

When we first moved here, the very first day we had Mummy, Daddy and two cubs playing in our rear garden jumping over our sleepers, they used to come in regularly until next door decided to put concrete blocks in and wooden fences to stop them from entering the gardens, now they can't get in, but we do see them sometimes walking up our road and over to the woods.25-09-2018, 06:58 PM

I was afraid the badger wou,d hurt him if he bounded up to investigate .
