Young badger near Stoodleigh, Tiverton, Devon.
My entry for mycountryfriday: I thought of war memorials, of football shirts, of flags but in the end I plumped for what I love about the country I live in - the wildlife! I've just spent a lovely evening taking picture with Devon Badger Watch - anyone else who wants to photograph wild badgers with them should see: http://www.devonbadgerwatch.co.uk/

	May 24 2007 23:21 GMT Craig1000hk fantastic image mate I love it, I actually saw a badger from my bedroom window one night, I live in Oxford, and at first thought it was a big cat.......sort of cool where I am I suppose I have also seen a pair of foxes........thing is this sort of thing drives me nuts because for nights afterwards I sit by my window armed with cameras, long lenses, and a flask of coffee and see nothing lol well done mate

	May 26 2007 20:27 GMT pauli3522 THIS IS EXCELLENT...I HAVE NEVER SEEN SOMETHING LIKE THIS THOR...
	May 27 2007 09:05 GMT PaP67 Wow i never observed the "blaireau" badger ( thanks i learnd a new word ) i think in my country it begins to be rare... encore une esp�ce en voie de disparition ? i don't know.....
	May 27 2007 09:42 GMT ThorBeverley PRO Thanks PaP67 - I first learnt the French word "blaireau" through an interest in cycling as it was Bernard Hinault's nickname. The guide at the Badger Watch site said that in England badgers live in large family groups due to the sheer number of earthworms (their favourite food) caused by the wetter climate, in France (which is drier) they tended to be more solitary. Perhaps this makes them harder to see in France?
	May 27 2007 12:57 GMT kosmos PRO Great shot of the badger! I have only seen a badger dead, in the middle of the road. :(
	May 27 2007 19:42 GMT gtc126 Two Great Shots of the Badger!!!!
	May 28 2007 06:58 GMT senna3 What a beauty, excellent picture!
	May 28 2007 08:08 GMT PaP67 dear Thor, thanks for your reply, your badgers shots are SUPER! i am very enjoyed to know that an Englishman knows this story about Bernard Hinault ! cel� me fait vraiment plaisir ci�o !
	May 28 2007 22:14 GMT choices Fabulous!!! What a cute little fellow! Great capture here!
	Jun 16 2007 16:12 GMT therese48 Amazing shot! Are they not nocturnal? I like all your nature shots, and feel inspired!
	Jun 16 2007 21:49 GMT ThorBeverley PRO Yes they are nocturnal therese - the badger hide is under trees so they come out a bit earlier (around 7.00pm) and the Badger Watch people feed peanuts which badgers love. And I used a flash and they didn't run away! All round it was a priviledge to see them.
