Testing time

Although badger viewing is becoming more difficult as the evenings get darker earlier (they visit just after 18:30 these days), it seems only fair to make things more interesting with some tests. The first one has been easy for them to solve and it has involved a plastic pet bowl being placed over the badger box, hiding the dog food. The first night one of them approached it very wearily and had a good sniff around before bluntly knocking the whole lot on its side and exposing the food. The second night there was no caution and the food bowl was flipped off in an instant. It's now got to the point that they are working on how to get the bowl off without dropping it in the badger box and slowing their feasting down. Must try harder with the tests.....
