You old Weasel!

Short of seeing the odd local fox slinking around your garden looking for a tasty titbit, British native mammals are elusive creatures.

For those eager to connect with our secret society of hedgerovians up close and personal, there is a place where hardy urbanites can go to see an example of the beautiful native wildlife these islands have to offer in a natural setting.
Halfway between London and Brighton in the village Lingfield (close to the renowned Lingfield Park Racecourse) The British Wildlife centre was our destination of choice last week to catch a glimpse of the mysterious Pine Marten, Weasel and Water Vole.

Is it me or would the guy above left make an excellent Bond Villian with his white fang!
 
 You can find lots more of our favourite animals featured in our wildlife wreaths this season.
