Nature: Badger makes guest appearance at RSPB visitor centre

Two visitors to the RSPB visitor centre at Loch Garten were captured on camera this week, embarking in a midnight feast of peanuts. A pine marten and badger were seen outside the Osprey Centre at the nature reserve. Blair Johnston, visitor experience officer, said: “We put down camera traps several times a week with peanuts to try and attract different types of animals. It’s not often we get badgers as we usually capture squirrels, jays, voles and wood mice.”
