We have never had badgers in the garden before, but I was alerted by a neighbour from two doors away, who had caught sight of one on her garden camera. So we checked ours, and lo and behold, there was the rear end of a badger! By the time we'd perused the whole batch of photos, we found we had caught a blurry shot of the badger's face, proving beyond doubt that the hairy bottom did indeed belong to a badger, but we also spotted our first hedgehog since last summer. I am now worried because I had been told that badgers will kill and eat hedgehogs. I wonder if that's why we have seen so few over the last couple of years when we once had whole hedgehog families visiting the garden?
