Badger cubs

early days

Despite being in a safe locatin these cubs were only seen during daylight hours on two occasions. They very soon followed the regime of coming out at night. Badgers have poor vision but super-sensitive smell and acute hearing - so they are easily put off

Canon Ambassador

The Norfolk Ambassador for Canon cameras demonstrated his affection or the brand by licking it. He later went on to take pictures of the onlookers and camerapersons. 

Deer, deer

roe deer

This young roe-buck was caught by a trailcam on the outskirts of Reepham. 

Later in the year a doe and fawn were seen on the same field

Meadow watch

scything

Senior recorders celebrate a successful days scything with a quick morris dance

Mystery Object

uv sighting

At first glance this may appear to be an unusual flower head but it is actually a night shot taken using a UV light - of a hedgehog. Lots of things produce bioluminescence including fungi 

Poor Hunting

Where have all the fish gone? This unlucky fellow couldn't find his usual lake - it had been right here a few days ago - and he had to top for a bit of a think

Waxwings
waxwings

A large influx of waxwing arrived in Fakenham last year and completely stripped the chinaberry trees in the B&Q carpark. They perch high up on neighbouring conifers then swoop down in packs to greedily eat all the berries. These are winter visitors from Scandinavia and sometimes as far as Siberia who are escaping much harsher conditions
