Today's Wildlife Encounter

[Llani Boy]

A shrew fighting off my dog near the top of Fairfield yesterday. I hope it wasn't too injured in the fracas - there's always a fine line when you should put something out of its misery and leave it to recover.

Hopefully the dog survived!

Next doors cat playing with a mouse on the rear lawn. A small raptor attempted to steal the mouse and meet a sad end as the cat killed both.

Hopefully the dog survived!

Lol. Yes.

Yay. The hedgehog is back! Not seen one for a few years but literally tripped over it in the garden in the dark this morning. Came back in to get phone for a pic but it had scarpered by the time I got back. Obviously had survived its earlier encounter with the dog. Looked good and healthy so hopefully will survive the winter.

Half a dozen swallows over the Leeds - Liverpool Canal near East Marton today. Could be the last for this year.

Less than six months time and they’ll be back Navigator

More today DT. Swallows and Redwings, so 2 seasons in 1 day.

Sad do. Pity a large raptor didn't take out the cat!

Catism?But totally agree
