| | | badgers and foxes feeding Hi guys
Just spent a few days in west wales at one of favourite b&b places. we always see foxes and badgers feeding so i took my camera this time. Pics not great, need to work on night photography  The proprietors feed them every night from guests' leftovers and you can watch them from the bar  One of fave moments was the baby ones, however, most of shots not really good enough to post, hope these not too big or unfocussed .

| | | Re: badgers and foxes feeding Yeah I love that they share a place to eat, even saw a hedgehog inbetween a badger and fox feeding one year. They eat cold potatoes too

| | | Re: badgers and foxes feeding Nice choice of place to visit. Like the pics, 
You seemed to be quite close. Or was that just having a good camera?
Its good what the owners of the B&B is doing.
One of the places i visit, I was leaving nuts etc nightly for the badgers in an area i had previously seen them feed. The foxs used to come then as well. It made me wonder if it was a mutual feeding ground. Now I am thinking it more. Wonder if at like your B&B the foxs had learnt that there are scraps to feed from.

| | | Re: badgers and foxes feeding Nice shots. They look pretty well focused to me. The fox seems to have learnt the art of keeping very still for long exposures! Lovely to see the badgers as well. |

| | | Re: badgers and foxes feeding Shots look good to me too.Must be nice to sit in a warm pub with a pint and watch them feeding....bit different to sitting it out next to a badger sett getting chewed to death by mossies or freezing 
Top marks to the landlord for feeding them

Mark H | Not sure hmmm, Although i like to sit in a pub I feel so much more comfortable and at peace with myself sitting by a sett most nights. Have to admit though you never get a chance to get shots like these.

| | | Re: badgers and foxes feeding Well it's not often that us ordinary folk get to be 'up close and personal' with our lovely british wildlife, so I'd say well done B&B proprietors for giving people the opportunity!
Lovely shots galanthus! Did the badgers actually like the toast? |
