Sad

So very sad. We found a dead badger in the lane. Had been hit by a car. They picked it up and took it away. But we had a good look first. Black and white speckles in its fur and a long elegant head and really leathery paws. And when We inspected its claws we could see how it shredded the corn so easily. The Badger Man told Her it usually lives on things like earthworms it digs up from the ground. Said he goes out at night and watches them play. Not so different from all of Us after all.
