Never annoy a vegetarian, they don't know when to stop

Hi pete, I remember when I was in the rif raf, many moons ago, and fishing the River Welland in Rutland late into the evening with Woods behind me and I heard a Fox scream like a Banshee. It must have been about 50 yards behind me and that sound made my blood run cold, I kid you not. When I...

I've seen them in the past at any hour but I am surprised like you they mainly take cover during the day but you took good snaps mate

I was looking at hedgehog shots and just look at this little beauty...so cute

They do it in the bird seed trays too.

Thank you so much, wiseowl. It really was a beautiful colour. This picture doesn't do it justice.
