waiting for badgers

[hobble]

Any one had badgers visiting yet?
There are signs of digging in the woods, but I am yet to have any visiting yet this year.
Can't remember what time of year they come to the garden here, ever hopeful and watch outside the window every night.
I think they must be busy with young, or it is too cold above ground for long spells away from their sets?

Lucky you! I hope you've got a camera at the ready!

New camera and video recorder at the ready this year, hope to post them on the site, when they visit.
Am lucky, some friends who visit see their first live badger show!!

They are still coming out late here, after midnight, they are quite shy ones and I think it's the cold winds too they don't like. Also I read the males go around visiting females soon. There were some out the other week earlier when it was milder weather. When the real Spring weather returns I hope you will get to see them

Nice! Then we shall expect an epic!

That's probably it then I may be asleep, later in the year they visit from 9am onwards. There has been a bit of digging in my flower beds which looks like badger. I agree they probably don't like the cold winds, much cosier in their sets.

I've seen a few about. Nearly fell over one the other night which must have been sitting on my doorstep!

Very regrettably, I have already seen 5 road-kills, and I hardly use the car at the moment.

I have had badgers visiting all winter. They start coming around 7.00pm and are backwards and forwards all night (according to my web cam). Unfortunately the web cam is not working at the moment but hope to get it going again soon.

I too have seen a couple of road kills in the last couple of weeks. Also a couple of dead deer.
