I'm assuming it was a pipistrelle as they are our most common bat, but there was one flitting round my garden at about 6:30 this evening.
Often see them in the summer but have never seen one this early in the year before.

No, I'm not ID-ing, that was just a question - I don't know much about mice. I couldn't tell whether its ears were big enough for a wood mouse, and house and wood are the only two I've any experience of! |

My mammal of the day today... is a gorgeous badger that visited my garden last night. Take a look at the video I took with my infra-red camera
Adorable (in my opinion!)

Tigger, fab footage of the badger she does look in good condition (as all Mums do)
Kaylieigh, that does look like a wood mouse to me, dont forget to feed it.
I tried my hardest not to photograph deer this week end and spent some time with my new camera in an area Ive not been to before, the locals call it Watership Down. It was Full of different wildlife and countless birds some ive not seen for years.
Saw a black rabbit (not Doug) and countless hares and this Roe buck whos antler velvet was flapping around his head. 
This is known as being ''in tatters'' hence the saying. 
This Hare ran 100yds across a field to tell the partridge something I couldnt tell what they were talking about as they were to far away.
Regards
Rob.
