The trail camera has been quietly clicking away for the past few days. I’ve not looked at it for the best part of a week and there were about 900 images on it when I finally brought it in this evening. Mainly foxes, mainly at night. This is a short sequence from Friday of Pretty with a much larger male fox (he featured briefly in photos last year as Nicked Ear).

I’m not sure how accurate the temperature gauge is on the camera, but it looks as though it’s been dropping below 0°C at night.

This one is from nearly 3 days later, one of a handful of badger sightings that the camera has picked up over the past week.

Pretty was around earlier this evening. Her foot is definitely much improved and she was using it almost all the time. In this photo the hind leg that’s nearest the camera is the one that was causing her problems. As you can see, it’s firmly planted on the ground.

And a last shot of Pretty getting a small reward for her patience.
