The Country Park in February


Exposed water vole burrows in the bank
Otter spraint

Water vole prints

The sides of the stream are looking very bare, but there's a lot of mammal activity in the park. Fresh mole hills, lots of rabbit droppings and fox scat, plus these water vole footprints and the usual otter spraint under the bridge. You could see burrows in the bank sides, too.

Is there a sniff of anything at the timber yard? I did have 10 minutes or so there a while ago but picked a day when we had a blizzard! It really was too early.

I'll go have a look before the end of this week.
