Hedgehogs are something one seldom see - though our dog Lottie seems to have a pretty good nose for them and has several times brought one back for our inspection - fortunately she has a soft mouth. So it was a nice surprise to see one in the torch beam when going round the sheep for a final inspection (we are lambing at present).
Badgers are what I normally expect to see at some point, as well as foxes. Both have been absent so far. But we have had a badger raiding the sheep food in the shed. All very worrying with the large increase in TB cattle cases this January compared to last with animal destroyed up by 25%.
