    British Wildlife Centre yesterday

    Had a good day at BWC but quite difficult with the changing weather but it did mean it was less busy
    First up, one of the scottish wildcat kittens


    the water voles are still very visible at times spoilt for choice with 3 in view


    red fox


    first time seeing the badgers out since our very first visit 3 years ago

    Re: British Wildlife Centre yesterday

    Stan - good mix of shots... you never know what you're going to see there!

    A Badger was out last time I went (at mid-day!) and I managed a quite good shot or two of a Water Vole, but I haven't yet seen the Wildcat kittens... so cute!

    I feel a forum meet up coming along soon, I know 2 or 3 that have expressed an interest!

    Nice set, up to the usual 'Stan the Man' standard, thanks for sharing. Mike.

            The cat will always get my vote ... nice kitty.

            So was the badger the best catch? ... I thought they only came out in the dark (obviously not the case here).

              certainly the animal i have seen least in previous visits. They have a keeper talk at 3pm and during that there was only the one badger out but after it finished and the remaining food was scattered two others appeared very quickly

              you will probably have to be quick as I think apart from school holidays they are closed from end of October to March

                    Good point that! I propose Saturday 1st October, weather permitting, so I will post a thread on the 'Meet ups section'.

                    Cheers, Mike.

                      unfortunately we wont be able to make it having just returned from hols in Bruges

                      Here's a couple more shots, both Dee's, she managed to get two of the badgers in the frame


                      and another of one of the foxes - this I think demonstrates that provided you set the camera up properly shooting at ISO 1600 on the 7D is no problem at all
