The Mythical Badger



The garden here in Polranny is enormous, and includes a stretch of woodland where a badger is reputed to live. Not that anyone ever sees him...

The existence of a Badger Castle was discovered by two neighbour children: Tara and Steve Kilbane. One spring day they were coming home from helping their parents on the bog when they saw young badgers frolicking in the sun against our garden wall. They made it a habit to watch the badgers from among the rushes. Badgers, who are shy and almost blind, usually only come out after dark. Now you can find traces of badgers' three nails paws in the grass when they have been digging for tasty titbits.
