Thought I'd put the still images in this thread.
7th May 2013
Having seen the Badgers at Sett A start to come out early I set my hide up along from the sett a few days ago to get them used to it, last night I went into the hide just before eight o'clock and was happy to see one venturing out at twenty past eight. It's the main female I've come to recognise on the night time videos, was also nice to finally 'meet' the clan members in daylight and see them in colour for a change.
#1
Venturing out of the sett, slinky side profile of a female badger
#2
Female Badger
That one started feeding towards me, but was hidden behind the small grassy mound - need to make a few tweaks to the hide position so I get clearer views next time. The female disappeared, then one of the cubs came out along with the below (male I think). Was quite dark now so shooting at ISO 6400 on the 5D, shutter speeds down to 1/100 at f/2.8.
#3
Badger in low light, ISO 6400 on the 5D Mark 3

Haven't checked the trail cams yet so hopefully have some more cub footage to upload.
