Looking towards our gated off wild garden area.
In the large oak tree on the left, I noticed a squirrel drey this morning.
1st one we've had.

Wasn't disappointed 🙂
If I can find the video, I'll post it!

Polecat in our front garden, back in September. Checking out the Hedgehog feeding station.
We are lucky to have these regularly in the garden and able to catch them on the trail camera occasionally.
