I managed to get this picture before it became aware of me. It soon put its ears back and got as low as it could so I withdrew to the kitchen again.

Big_G Jun 2024 3:57pm, 1 Jun 2024 3,519 posts	Quote Pin Big_G I have a wildlife camera and picked this up the other night. There’s a story to this. I thought there were ‘at least 2’, as I thought that it was cubs playing/fighting, and they were making a real racket. But now I actually think it was only one adult badger. About 10ft back from our back door, we have a 5ft high wall, and at the top of that is our garden. Against this wall we have a 4ft high storage box, and I think the badger must have used that to get down, but then realised it couldn’t get back up. There was a large amount of screaming and scrambling at 4am that morning as it was presumably panicking (it eventually got back up, and there are a lot of scratches on the storage box). We do have steps up, but there is a gate to stop the dog getting up so it couldn’t use that. From the footage, pretty sure it was just one animal. Interestingly, it came back a few times through the night - 10:40pm, midnight, 3am, and 4am when I heard it. Checked the camera this morning again, and there was just a cat that triggered it last night. The set is about 100m away from the house, in a field that runs along the back of my house. OH isn’t happy as veg plots have been decimated!
