A badger family!


Our usual badger turned up to clear up underneath the bird feeder tonight. We realised that its mate was there too- we'd seen the pair of them before. We then realised that there was a third! They had bought a youngster along with them. It was badger cubs I'd heard before- it was making the odd sqeaking noise that had woken me up a couple of weeks ago.
