Good neighbours

The badger's internal clocks have really moved dramatically over the past eight weeks and they now visit (or at least the greediest does) around 18:45. Most recently, when some leftover cereal and milk was put out with the usual dog food and peanuts, we observed one badger eating the dog food, one eating the peanuts and a local neighbourhood cat sat lapping up the milk. The three creatures completely ignored each other and there was no visible tension, just the three of them doing what they needed to do. The cat finished its milk, looked at the badgers and then sauntered away.
