With the clocks going back tonight, as long as I don’t forget I will be feeding the Badgers at 5.20pm. To the Badgers it will be feed time as usual. Why we continually year after year have to suffer disruption that the clock changes cause I cannot understand. I would like most others prefer it to stay lighter at night. Just for the amount of power it would save, you would think that some politician would use a private members bill to have it altered if one is needed at all that is.
The two Reindeer from Pennywell Farm that are here to be mated by Padfoot wont allow our Reindeer to feed. I would have expected a little bickering but it is a bit full on. For two days our females have not had any feed at all. Tonight I have needed to go in the Reindeer field so that the feed is had by all. Fortunately Padfoot is behaving himself, but keeping the two separated I have to be in between Padfoot and the two females, far away from the gate to be in an uncomfortable place if Padfoot did decide that I was not welcome in his domain. My being in the Field does cause another problem as two of our females are particularly friendly, so much so that when I initially go into the Field they prefer to inspect me than eat the feed that I am protecting for them.
