Garden Party In The Copse…
Seven badgers participated
In the copse feast
During almost complete daylight,
A garden party, a tasting delight
For these underground beasts,
Whose feeding frenzy was intoxicated…
Seven Brocks hesitated,
Or at the very least
Glared in mocking pose, contrite.
Their garden party, sunset alight,
Warmed their browsing until appeased
They disappeared into various holes, sated…

26th April 2022…
Within five minutes of spreading out morsels of food, the guests emerged from their setts around the copse and began to feed quite openly in the last of the day’s sunlight on Sunday 24th April in Temple Balsall.
They must have sensed my presence nearby but despite their wariness, they fed with gusto anyway, casting an occasional glare in my direction, yet not being concerned enough to vanish.
I was delighted…
