May. A wonderful month.



Yesterday we saw a new reptile species on the path, although a dead, bird-pecked Slow Worm does not really count especially as it was probably dropped by a bird and could have come from anywhere. But surely there have to be Slow Worms here somewhere.

The longer days and shorter nights have meant that we have started to catch the badgers out and about in daylight on the trap cameras. Until now they have been strictly nocturnal and it is lovely to now get some better images of them in improved light conditions:
No badger young seen as yet though. Perhaps they didn’t have any.
