I love Exmoor too but I'm afraid I dont have any great stories. best I can do is having a Badger cross my path just a few yards away without noticing me as i stood on the front door steps sipping tea. Thats the best view of a Badger i've had.

So lets hear some of your stories and see some of your pics!

Cheers, Ashe

I've been filming/photography for about a year now & some of the highlights have been:baby tawny owls,kingfishers,foxes & the exmoor pony round up which was amazing.I also filmed two baby Red Deer calfs playing which was great fun as i love deer & only the other night i saw some Badgers so i'm hoping to film them soon.

I'm quite jealous. It sounds like your having great fun up there. I've only seen the deer from a distance. They always retreat as soon as they spot me. I've seen the ponies close up though. Two of them, I assume males, were having a disagreement, hooves in the air and charging around.

I hope you will post some photos as soon as your allowed to.

Have you introduced yourself in the 'hello' forum? And try the mammal forum. There are lots of 'Badger watchers' there.

Enjoy the site. Any questions ask away. There are so many knowledgeable people on there you wouldnt believe.

best, Ashe
