No sightings of the badger yet tonight, so instead here are some photos of the local rats, taken this morning at Falmer Pond. It was pretty gloomy, and for the technically inclined the first shot was taken at a modest ISO 1600; the rest were all at ISO 3,200. They are more or less straight from the camera (just a little bit of brightening on a couple of them, and minor sharpening for the web).
