My next door neighbour had left some rubbish bags in the bin in his porch. This morning the bin was upended, the bags opened and rubbish scattered around his lawn. I assumed a fox or dog at first but then found a path practically bulldozed through my front flowerbed. Badger damage to a garden is pretty unmistakable.
On the birding front I saw a pair of partridges as I was driving into Latimer from Ley Hill last week. Not much in the garden but today a woodpecker was drumming somewhere across the fields and after digging over a bed prior to planting out some seedlings I turned away for a second to find a blackbird collecting worms from the bed. Normally I would expect a robin to be present when digging like this but this time it was the blackbird.
