  1. 1 juvenile female on the 21st, 1 mature female today 2488
  2. 1 mature male yesterday pm, 1 juvenile female this morning 2439
  3. 1 male yesterday; only the 2nd ive bagged this year (out of the 3 that ive seen in my garden) 1605
  4. Finally bagged a juvenile male this morning, the 21st from my garden this year. The most aggressive one Ive seen in the 2 yeras ive lived here...the pic shows the damage done by it to feeders over the last 2 mornings alone. Never mind, 21 grains of attitude adjustment sorted it out. A bonus sighting was an adult Sparrowhawk popping into the garden last week and then a juvenile one this morning. Gorgeous birds, but going from the manic alarm calls, the local bird population did not share my joy in seeing them!
  5. Seen the first activity for a while this morning, 2 juvenile males and a big lactating sow taken one after the other in the live trap.
  6. Its been a busy couple of days and the 'drought' of greys is definitely over! 3 on the 12th and 4 today, active from 5am until 8pm, I took 5 mature males and 2 mature, lactating females, all live trapped. Only the last of the females was a bit of a runt and crawling with fleas, the others were all prime specimens. Ive another 2 days off work, so I will see what they bring
  7. 2 males, 1 female from the garden today + cheekily claiming 1 x local roadkill seen on the 4th 1884
  8. 1 young female taken this morning in the live trap, an absolute bruiser too and in prime condition. 1st live one i've bagged for a while, the Fenn trap has been doing the heavy-lifting of late. Im still not seeing anything like the same amount of activity I was, this time last year.
  9. Some activity starting around mine, but still quieter now than back in January. There is likely grey activity that Im not seeing as I am back on Mon- Fri dayshifts, so not able to monitor the garden as much. Ive only bagged 2 of late, both taken in my Mk4 Fenn cage trap on April 28th and 11th of this month, rounding the total for my garden at 20 now. I did almost run one over on friday morning on my way to work...at 05:20am, Ive never seen one active that early before!
