Driving home just after midnight last night I had just passed through Latimer when a badger suddenlty emerged from the hedgerow and turned its head to face me. Luckily I was anticipating wildlife at that time of night and slowed down promptly otherwise it might have been yet another ex badger on the tarmac. What was a surprise was to get the full face in the headlights, it is unusual to get a good look at the mask as they are usually crossing at right angles or running away.
At the edge of the little orchard in Codmore Wood Road there was a muntjac eating windfalls. As the lights startled it we could see pieces of apple falling from its mouth.
In the garden the birds seem to be thinking about nesting with a pair of robins not only not fighting but collecting dead leaves and taking them into the honeysuckle on the side fence.
