Redstart & Badger

Sunshine, 12°, light NE.

Alan out at Cholsey Marsh this morning with roughly the same as on previous days, no new arrivals.

This afternoon along the Bunk line he found a male and female Redstart. A good find.

An unusual occurrence this afternoon. Was alerted by a neighbour that we had a Badger in the garden.

When I went down to check I noticed that the Badger had an injury to its lower back. May have been grazed by a vehicle or even attacked by a dog?

It was obviously disorientated and frightened but very mobile and it went under the fence and into a neighbouring garden and disappeared despite further searching. So I hope it is okay!
