Things Seen
Jun. 25th, 2013 02:17 pm1) a small black cat disappearing up the lane. I thought she had killed a baby rabbit at first, as she was clearly carrying something heavy from the way she was running. Then she jumped up onto the bank, and I realised that what she was carrying was actually a very small black kitten. I have not seen her before. I wonder if she is feral?
2) dead (but not squished) on the road below Kit Hill, something that was quite definitely either a young polecat-ferret, or possibly an actual polecat. I know that the Polecats are coming back, after having been almost extinct and reduced to a tiny relict population in West Wales - but in theory, they are not supposed to have reached Cornwall yet. So possibly a feral ferret? Although the difference between a feral polecat-ferret and an actual polecat seems to be largely philosophical.
3) a huge moon. I took rather a good photograph of it, but you will have to take this on trust, as I then accidentally deleted the photograph before I had copied it off the camera drive. Oh well. It's the moon, you all know what that looks like.
