FEATURE - SN_CLUMSY_BADGER_06
This badger has an embarrassing moment as it falls off a tree branch in the middle of the night. The clumsy cub was caught out by a remote trigger camera in a private woodland in Shropshire.
Wildlife photographer Richard Bowler said, “I followed the progress of four rescued badgers as they returned to the wild using a camera trap.”
“The badger struggled to grip with its paws as it attempted to climb onto the trunk. That was its first and only attempt to climb the fallen tree branch.”
“There were no other badgers present prior to the cubs being released which is why this private location was chosen. This is also to protect them from culling and illegal persecution.”
“Before release, the cubs were tested for and vaccinated against bTB to ensure they pose no threat to the farming community.”

As I said when uploading the images I'd only give the location as private Shropshire woodland, to protect the badgers from the cull and illegal persicution.
There were no badgers present prior to releasing the cubs, that is why the location was chosen for the release site. I followed the badgers progress up until early this year.
Jammy dodgers are also a favourite for badgers, but it has to be remembered its not a healthy diet for the badgers, used sparingly it does no harm. Whenever I visited the location I also left some healthy food for them. Peanuts, corn on the cob, dog or cat biscuits, just enough to help them if they were struggling to find food naturally.

Jasper, garnet, sometimes sapphires: pocketfuls of treasure at Gemstone Beach
At Orepuki, on the remote south coast of New Zealand's South Island, a bed of riches colour the shoreline, bringing gem hunters from near and far.
Jasper, hydro-grossular garnet in pinks, greens and yellows, patterned fossilised worm-trails, spotted argillite, frosty white quartz, speckled granites, pink-flecked rhodonite and - in rare cases - the unmistakeable blue of sapphire, colour the low-tide line.
The gems likely started their lengthy journey to Gemstone Beach during the last ice age, roughly 16,000-18,000 years ago. As the landscape of Fiordland - the dramatic mountainous region of the lower South Island - altered and released its rocks.

SWALLOW ME WHOLE… A Barn Swallow lives up to its name as it swoops into a stable, through the open barn door. The adults are seen coming back to their young to feed them, near Corwen, Denbighshire, in North Wales of which is their second brood of the year.
Wildlife photographer Richard Bowler captured these lovely shots after a lot of trial and error, saying, “Whilst most people just call them swallows, they are actually Barn Swallows. They’re sadly a species in decline though we have happily managed to increase from one nesting pair a couple of years ago in the barn to now two pairs. The barn provides a perfect nesting habitat for swallow broods. Adult swallows are in and out all the time with beak’s full of food, from beetles to flies and insects or moths.”
“The trial and error in shooting comes down to not being in the barn myself, but getting everything set up then using a remote control shutter and guessing when the swallow is in frame. I’ve shot hundreds of frames to get the right ones which can be very time consuming but I always end up happy with the final results. I love the colours of the bird, highlighted by the flash.”

“The trial and error in shooting comes down to not being in the barn myself, but getting everything set up then using a remote control shutter and guessing when the swallow is in frame. I’ve shot hundreds of frames to get the right ones which can be very time consuming but I always end up happy with the final results. I love the colours of the bird, highlighted by the flash.”

Wildlife photographer Richard Bowler captured these lovely shots after a lot of trial and error, saying, “Whilst most people just call them swallows, they are actually Barn Swallows. They’re sadly a species in decline though we have happily managed to increase from one nesting pair a couple of years ago in the barn to now two pairs. The barn provides a perfect nesting habitat for swallow broods. Adult swallows are in and out all the time with beak’s full of food, from beetles to flies and insects or moths.”
