Badgers
They live across the uplands and lowlands of @BreconBeaconsNP in large social networks of underground tunnels. They are nocturnal and quite elusive, so this footage provides a great glimpse of what they get up to when most of us are sleeping……

#Walking on #Sugarloaf ? Notice the bracken has been cut and baled?
Bracken: native British fern - one of the world’s oldest & most successful plants. In soil it loves, it can become invasive. To stop it thriving at the expense of other plants, it can be cut and removed.

Roe deer captured on Trailcam. They are shy creatures who like sheltered woodland/grassland and recently seen more frequently in @BreconBeaconsNP They can negatively impact trees by grazing on bark but its great to see them here.

My @GrowWildUK #wildflower seeds have done me proud again this year. The #bees absolutely love them.

Great weekend away with @tigerbayrambler. Lots of fun, good weather and lots of wildlife = perfect weekend.

@GrowWildNI He probably is.... he's rather fond of snacking.

The #wildflower inspector is on site. He's surveyed the @GrowWildWales seedlings and said they are doing brilliantly and submitted his invoice for scoobysnacks. #HappyFriday
