It's a steep learning curve to edit , it's an art form .

Trapped in a car & frightened to get out because of Badgers 😆 😅
What a load of fear , badgers 99% of the time run away from any humans because Badgers are scared .
Proud to have peacefully watched & photographed them .
@rattycastle
I’m sorry but I detest badgers. I spent a night trapped in my car because I got home late (rural setting) and was too frightened to get out of my car. They do so much damage be it by spreading disease or causing damage. Townies just see little cuddly things. They are not.

Good day all .
I have updated my etsy shop which shows my best available prints for sale .
It would be fantastic & a huge help if you could visit my shop .
Any proceeds help fund future wildlife trips & it really does make a massive difference.
