A nice surprise - a Hedgehog which visited us in our Cranham garden for a couple of days,then seen no more.

Into September '16 - Barking Quay

A couple of  photo's from Barking town quay, an unlikely place to spot wildlife you would think, but there's plenty in urban area's if you look. On this day I saw a Kingfisher there, unfortunately by the time I had my camera set up....it flew !
Mute Swans, Herring Gull, Moorhen and a good old Brown Rat.

Other Wildlife from August
