One to make all wildlife watchers jealous. Our holiday cottage garden is visited every night by badgers, enticed in with a few peanuts. The farmer actively encourages them to come even with the threat of TB. His cattle are out all year and he reckons that is why he has never had a case. It is very refreshing to hear a live and let live attitude towards them as there are so many country voices wanting to cull them. As this was our last night I hid behind the door curtain as a temporary hide and was 3ft away to get the shot.
