Re: Wildlife
OK so not so impressed with the fox cubs now. Just found a severed pet rabbit leg on my lawn...
Euw.

Re: Wildlife
Oh dear, not so nice.
I have a large heap of old compost from when I have emptied plant pots and planted them up with fresh compost. From time to time I add some of this old compost to some of the flower beds when they are looking in need of a bit extra. The other day I was scooping some into the wheelbarrow when I unearthed a frog buried a few inches down.
We moved it to the edge of our pond and it jumped into the water. Today the same thing happened again so I don't know if there is a whole family buried there or if the same one has come back to hibernate again. This time I left it where it was.
I would have thought it was plenty warm enough now for a frog not to need to hide away like this.

That is REALLY odd, isn't it?

No, there is a message saying that the link can't be viewed. Have you shared it on facebook?

Re: Wildlife
No, it was my friend's film. I didn't know that the FB privacy bits worked on external links, sorry.
Basically, it was a video of various bits of the gorge, which really made it look like a place that fairies out to live!

...as indeed they do - didn't you know?
I agree that it is a magical place, full of mossy corners and hanging ferns over the babbling water.

Very cute! But possibly not very cuddly.

Re: Wildlife
Wow, that must have been quite a sight. And you're very lucky - they are critically endangered!

Re: Wildlife
Maybe they just caught an ordinary one and painted its tail white?
Never put off till tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow.

Re: Wildlife
Good luck to the person who tries to catch it.
And honestly, is there such a thing as an "ordinary" eagle?
