24th May 09: As i stepped outside the gate this morning straight away I noticed the Badger had been busy overnight. The grass verge had been disturbed with scrapes made by our night visitors as they searched for worms, one of their favourite foods.
Sat in the ash tree as I walked back from taking the photo was an old friend, a Blackbird.
I stopped to listen to his wonderful song. Because of his distinctive white side patches each side of his face, I have been able to identify him easily. All through the winter he made his presence known, coming up into the garden for food when it was scarce. Since the warmer weather he has not bothered with food put out, preferring wild food within his own territory.
