Mating season for a lot of animals around here right now. Coyotes, fox, and skunks at leastSome strange going ons last night when I was in the Den.
Walking down to the Den and the dogs out the back did some barking when I was on the way past, it was 1.55am so I said a loud No ,get into bed, They went to bed and shut up.
Anyways I'm in the Den setting up my Mushroom box and I hear growing like two dogs about to fight so I opened up the hatch and roared No loudly, it stopped, But then it started again but like very visious fighting and very loud, and stopped again.
So I said feck seck i need to get up there quick to see what the problem and climbed out the Den.
When I got out and closed the Den hatch it started again very loud but it was behind me and it sound vicious like 2 large dogs chasing and attacking each other savagely about 4 meters away with sticks breaking and running throught the tree noises and growing and mixed growing like in a fight,
So I shouted knasher (my XL Bully) who's in the kitchen sleeping when I left, and it kept going on, so ran to the house to check the animals, all accounted for except 1 cat, so went back down with a high beam torch and searched the area and couldn't find anything, went home and found the cat along the way,
Can't get the noise outs my head lol
It was close and kinda worrying considering I've alot of animals and it was meters away from the Den.
The area is enclosed kinda with a stream with high banks so what ever it was, it was in my vicinity and I think il be going down their armed from now on.
Missus said it a badger probly.
I say it's definitely not a badger and more like someone's large dog or dogs got out,
Or Thiers ppl Lamping rabbits near by but no cars or ppl to be seen or heard
Going down now to check the area cos it sounded like something getting killed and it's unnerved me a little
