The chaffinch is on the RSPB Green status list.

This little beauty must have been hungry and so busy foraging after all the rain and didn't know I was there until I took this photo.

A young badger I filmed back in May tucking in to raisins, the soundtrack is provided by a young woodpecker looking out of its hole above me.

Edit:

My short Badger video has made it's way on to the BBC Spring Watch 'twitter' page... I've added a link here and at the bottom of the comments.

A nice place to stop and look at the view.

Thought I'd pop out and watch the badgers for an hour or so again last night. Looks like it's four cubs, The bracken is growing so fast it will be hard to see them at all before too long... Not a very good image (1/64 @ iso12800) as it was rather late and cloudy.... Anyway, good to see them happily playing and charging around through the bracken... I did shoot about 60 seconds of video the other day, very shaky with no tripod and knackered arms... www.youtube.com/watch?v=yeywzJXvNIw

Badger shot on the 'BBC Springwatch live' website... Yay !!
