Tazni Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 Hello! First post from me... and it's a bit of an odd one but bear with me here! I'm a local nature photographer, recently started working full time and I've been searching high and low for two illusive mammals to photograph, with no success! Those are Badgers and Foxes! I know these animals are often either loved or hated, but I'm working hard to promote conservation and tolerance of these, in my opinion, gorgeous animals! Basically, I'm trying to track down any homeowners or land owners who have either of these animals as visitors or permanent residents in their gardens or property, in order to try and capture some images! As a huge thanks, I would be more than happy to provide some prints of anything I do capture at your homes, and I would genuinely be eternally grateful as you will be helping me get on my feet with my new venture into being a self employed photographer. Again... I know this is a bizarre request but I'm running out of options If you do have any information on where I might find any of these animals, could you please message me rather than posting locations publicly, purely down to the fact that this information could be used by people with bad intentions.... THANK YOU! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tazni Posted July 6, 2016 Author Share Posted July 6, 2016 The issue is, I'm not looking for the ones that are out at night as, I agree, they're pretty easy to find! I'm trying to find the ones who are around during the day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrinkly67 Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 As you already appreciate, many people may be reluctant to give information about badger setts, given that they are protected by law. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geared Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 I'm trying to find the ones who are around during the day! You know Badgers are mainly nocturnal animals right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve68 Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 The Sun comes up pretty early I'd often see foxes roaming around the old pigeon lofts off penistone road/infirmary in Hillsborough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tazni Posted July 7, 2016 Author Share Posted July 7, 2016 You know Badgers are mainly nocturnal animals right? More than aware, but during summer with limited foraging time, they will often come out whilst it's still light in the evenings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berberis Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 I saw the largest fox I have ever seen on Parkhead Road lastnight at about 11pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
