A very quiet weekend ended with a brief encounter with a badger.

More badger photos tonight. I was out in the garden watching her (him?) for about 15 minutes, both of us getting wet.

One of the badgers was back this evening and was clearly much more interested in the peanuts and scraps than whether a human was lurking nearby, camera in hand. Neither of us were bothered by the light drizzle.
