This is the largest of many entrances to a badger sett in Breech Wood, near where I live. I like the sweep of the "front drive" showing where the badgers drag away the debris of loose earth and fallen leaves each night when they emerge. The tree roots even supply a structural "lintel" over the top of the entrance giving great support! to the roof! These badgers are lucky really as they live within the military firing range so human passers-by are few and far between other the soldiers who are far too busy to interfere with them. I guess it gets a bit noisy some days, but I suppose they're used to it.
@shepherdman - yes it's a shame that so many are hit by cars. Here in Somerset many setts have been part of the controversial badger cull - fortunately this particular sett is outside the cull zone.
No, I'm glad they don't come in our garden, rabbits do!
