A bunch of baby wrens which must have popped out of their nest. They were cute and still had fluffy bits of down on their heads.
A few pairs of hares.
A male Reed Bunting singing his little head off on the edge of the moor.
Also, 7 moles in my traps and a dead vixen that someone must have shot. Because they had left it to rot in an open field I smelt it before I spotted it. It was not nice as it probably had some cubs nearby.
