Thanks Rob. Why do you think my badger is pregnant. How can you tell it's a female. Am I missing something? I can't tell the difference. Hope she/he comes again... I'll be waiting with camera on tripod!

No youve missed nothing I think I mixed your fox up with your Badger. I do think the head and neck size looks ladylike, as for the pregnancy

most badgers would have given birth by now, as you know.

Just put my ramblings down to my old age and too much fresh air.
Apologies
Rob

Back to my favourite species again

For some reason the person i'm sharing a house with for the next few weeks decided to keep the heating on full blast and it's like a hothouse in here - so obviously i opened the window, despite frost. I have been chasing squirrels out of my room - for some strange reason they think I have nuts in here...are insisting I have nuts in here!!! They are funny things - full of character

Oh and in comes Hobbit - the boss squirrel - best go get some nuts now as she wont take no for an answer!!!

I haven't been around much for the last couple of day... had a cold! but my mammal of the day (two days ago) was a badger that visited my garden at night and was caught on my infra-red camera with the security light on!

You can take a look at her here

You lucky thing seamusagleann!

Mine has to be the Pipistrelle bats I saw in my garden tonight. Still pretty early, but loving the moths that the warmer day had brought out.

My mammal of the day is this weasel I spotted whilst walking in Lincolnshire he was too busy hunting to notice us although we were only 5 metres away
