    Two redwing up above slowly drifted left and then right over my garden this morning, in that sort of fluttery-not-really-going-anywhere way that they often do, and for the first time I heard a bit of a short song from them that they repeated. I was surprised at how Swallow-like the song was!

    In your garden, that's amazing. I just discovered there were badgers on my patch the other week in Peterhead. Not really expecting much I set up a trail cam in the woods, and within a couple of nights it captured roe deer, rabbits, a fox and a badger! and I was over the moon. I was actually a...
