The purpose of this set up was to photograph badgers away from the Sett, it's easy to photograph them at the sett, not so easy once they start to forage for the night. All was going well until the site was found by these three fox cubs, who can only be described as a marauding gang of hooligans, squabbling's and fighting amongst themselves as can be seen. I've now established a new site which from camera trap footage the badgers are visiting but not the fox cubs. --- I promise I won't bore you with anymore of these shots, I don't normally take as many as this of a subject.
