7daysinaweek Posted April 30, 2020 Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 Hi GS I have seen three in all my years around west Lancs area. By your response I can see it was a bit of a unexpected sighting and agree that they are not common especially over towards my neck of the woods. Fascinating sight. Don't let the sneaky rat fool you, he looks like the main culprit. 🤣 Old brock will make short work of snaffling those Greyun's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rim Fire Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 All my feeders get visited by Badgers if you put a mixed feed in them the squirrels will empty feeder until they find the bits they like the rest go on the floor which will attract other vermin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here, I doubt there's a road around here that doesn't have at least one decaying badger on it. Makes annoying dog walks for the OH at times. 😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to agree they can be a quite savage regarding their environment. Just a little unusual to see in our immediate area. atb 7diaw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 I agree there seems to be more badgers in Kent than foxes, very evident in the lambing fields. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walker570 Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 Now, now, you all know they are nice soft cuddly creatures that do no harm to anything at all. Brian May says that, so it must be true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good shot? Posted May 1, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 I initially thought it was a fox as I had seen them at this point on more than one occasion. I decided to put the trail cam out to find out for sure. Rats and Badgers only, over three days I think. I see Badgers most times when I have sat out with night vision particularly on this permission, so quite common.Not seen one Hedgehog though, I think I know why. At least 50 Squirrels have been put out in this area over the previous 12 months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
