Six Badger Portraits

This may prove to be the year without a fox, but the badgers have more than made up for it. To be fair, the foxes are around, just very shy. Unlike this garden regular. These shots were on Sunday night.

    The last one is excellent!

    It seem relaxed in your presence. I guess there is a distance though 🙂

      Darko, thanks! Somehow I missed these comments, but I was happy with that last one. I’ve since then re-edited it to make it even better. Distance is 15-20 feet. It’s a pretty relaxed badger, that one. 🙂

      Aurora, thanks! Yes that last one got me too! It’s currently my desktop on the three machines I use.
