Robinchats can be found on heaths, in the dunes, in rough, open marshlands and in semi-open farmland. They are birds of open to semi-open, often dry terrain with some scrub growth or tall growing herbs. The well-hidden nest is built on or just above the ground. Most of the food consisting of insects and other small animals is tracked down from a lookout post in the territory. The males are easily recognizable with a black head, white neck sides and bright orange breast.

Photo from last year showing how beautiful badgers are.
Many thanks to people who view or comment on my photos.

With its characteristic black and white-striped face, grey fur and short furry tail, the badger looks like no other UK mammal. Stocky, powerfully-built creatures, they typically weigh 10–12kg, with a body length of about 90cm. This makes them the biggest land predator in the UK. Info: Woodland Trust.
