Badger Watch (photo special)

By Words | Published August 11, 2012

The timing of this post means that someone tonight will be the 1,000,000th visitor here. And since the foxes are playing hard to get, here are some shots taken last night (the final one was taken this evening) of one of our three local badgers. They are nightly visitors, and normally very shy.

And the one from tonight…

If you enjoyed these photos, take a look at Brian May's Save Me site (and yes, it is that Brian May).

Camera note: all shots taken with the Canon 7D and EF 24-105 F4L IS USM lens, apart from the final shot which was taken with the EF 100mm f/2.8L macro IS USM lens.

    They seem to be getting a little bolder, Words.

    dW, they certainly are. They come by every night. Sometimes they scram when they see us, but not always.
