Old English name for the Badger,Taken last night-hope im not boring you guys too much with my Badger images-This guy cant get enough of the peanut butter and ended up ripping bits off the stump trying to get every bit,He actually came out in the light but after 1 shot decided to go have a rest for an hour and come back in the dark and stayed for more than hour and 45 images later
Details as before

Hi Dave
Another Great image,
Try using raisins as bait, the Badgers love them and they don’t show up as much on the photos

Hi Dave,

Another excellent shot in the series.

Having only ever seen a wild badger a handful of times I can certainly imagine how rewarding and pleasurable this project must be.

Hi Dave

Another 'cracker' must visit my local set, but I can't see me doing as well as you have!
