Badgerland explains all about Britain's favourite wild mammal, the Badger (also known as Brock, Bawson, Pate or Meles meles).
The Badger is one of the most popular animals in the UK. Widespread across England and Wales (with a few in Scotland), the badger is loved by most but seen by few. All too often the Badger and its environment are harmed by man (by accident or deliberately). We explain about the badgers legally protected status across the UK.
We also provide information about the badgers family, its home, its food sources, its lifestyle, as well as photos, pictures and videos and other information (like how big they are, what they sound like and how they are protected). We also show you how you can see badgers in the wild.

Hi everybody - and thanks for coming back to our channel
It’s the middle of summer now. It is well after 9pm so we are rapidly approaching dusk at the end of a hot dry summer day.
It’s exactly the sort of evening when we’d expect there to be plagues of midges, but there is a strong breeze at the moment and this is keeping them at bay.
I don’t want to say exactly where I am, but we are at the edge of some fields between a grouse moor and a new community-based wildlife reserve.

This video shows that it's been a while since we've seen Fallow deer in this area. As it turns from daylight to dusk, we’ve had a little drive round this summer evening. To be honest we’ve been out looking for Little Owls, but they seems to have disappeared for now; so we went to one of our old favourite fields to see what might be there. About 100 metres away, we can just make out the shape of...

This video shows that the Kestrels have taken over the midge-filled sky. Video filmed on the 28th July 2024. It is that time of the summer, when we’ve had a little drop of rain and some strong sunshine; and now the air is teeming with midges. The camera picks up only a small proportion of the total number of midges that are in the air - they are as annoying as hell to us, but the birds seem to ...

fantastic video. little owls are my favourite animal i have to admit (have been watching a lo livestream for the past 2-3 years in hungary mrs kuvik is a legend 😀
Glad you enjoyed it!
So lovely to watch rather than mobs rioting and bloody awful American politics. Thanks so much from Canada.
That's is very true - I'm sure if any-one uses a blood-pressure monitor they will see a spike in high blood pressure when it comes to violence and poltics; but they will rapidly calm down if they can spend some time close to nature. Thanks for the kind words.
Lovely 😊 I've been watching Badgers for about 3 years on a Cornwall Badger stream 😀
Fabulous animals to watch!
Wonderful to see!
Fabulous animals to watch!
@@badgerlandcouk Yes!
I,ve been to this sett and watched it,how many cubs have they had this year 2024?
Hi Andy - sorry, but I'm not sure about how many cubs this year - I haven't been to this sett since Covid lockdown times. Thanks Simon
@@badgerlandcouk Yes its been a few years since i,ve been to this sett,there are more setts nearby this location.
First like nd comment good luck mate 😊
Legend!
Awwww, what a cute little guy, thanks for posting, great video!
You are so kind - thanks for watching!
Nice and beautiful video. Thanks for sharing & big like
Thanks for liking
Congratulations! You made a very cinematic and serein video . Very much well done ! ☀️☀️👑
Thank you so much!
What an amazing place this is. ❤
I may not have heard you and I apologise if you did acknowledge other cyclists/walkers, but as a horse rider, we get many cyclists that 'creep' up on us. It's always really helpful if you just shout 'hi' so we can hear you. The horses usually hear you before we do but when they jump, we jump even more 😁 Saves everyone getting spooked. Awesome track to live nearby!
Quintessentially Beautiful English village..tranquil countryside.
It's a beautiful engine. I love steam machines :) 🚂⚙️
Eine wirklich wunderschöne Maschine. Und ganz tolle Aufnahmen. Vielen Dank.
Thanks for the kind words...
Fun fact: Downham is actually my last name
Had to skip the overwhelming text intro. But good to get an idea of the track once passed all that.
Noted!
T'int Jesus its just a feller.
I just so LOVE this village.......(And the excellent sandwiches they serve at the Ashton Arms!!!) And I'm looking forward to moving back to Clitheroe (which is just down the road, which is where I come from) in April/May of next year.
It's lovely and a great place to visit on t' way through area; I'm from t'other side of Pendle Hill, close to Nelson, a cotton milling town. I can get into Barley and Newchurch in a few minutes stroll. I love our countryside and I was quite glad this was silent - just the noise of nature without many of the misinformed narrations added to many a posting. Does every granny claim to be related to Elizabeth Southern or Alice Nutter? Although some of the distant family are Nutter's not just in name and hail from Sabden. Sometimes when we have beauty on our doorstep we're tempted to take it for granted and not appreciate it; If I get that bad thee can take a short walk along the canal to Burnley to remind thee of what it could be like! (Good examples of early Satanic mills though, like Queen Street).
It was great to see so many people at Hebden Bridge, the stall was extremely busy with people wanting to sign the postcards.
The 1961 film (whistle down the wind) was filmed here
One of my favorite films.😊😊😊😊😊
Scurrently closed - fallen trees
Never knew about this I'll give it a go
It's a great track for new mountain bikers and for those to practice skills like cornering. Note that there was a message a week or two back about trees being down, so go careful if you are heading into any blind corners...
Les blaireaux ne sont pas protégés en France, hélas !!
tiz an oesum suight to behold fur sure.
Very good! What are you using to get the camera movement?
I built my own camera track slider. It is basically a wooden board with a couple of runners on it. A moving trolley runs between the runners. The trolley is connected to a threaded rod which is driven by a small battery-powered stepper motor. A tripod head is fitted to the trolley, so I can adjust the angle of the camera. The stepper motor means that I can vary the track speed; which is good for different time lapse speeds. I can vary the track speeds from about 20 minutes per metre of travel; to as long as 5 hours. It isn't a perfect track slider by any means, but it was cheap to make (guessing about £75); so it was a good way to make a few moving time lapse videos. Professional track sliders with fully programmable electronics and so on, are likely to be well above £1000. One example would be the Syrp Genie kit: syrp.co.nz/products/genie-kits
Good video, thumbs up. Greetings, happy week 👍👍
Great captures, I really like your channel. You have interesting videos !!! I subscribe to your channel and I leave you with the thumbs up. Visit my channel Wildlife, I hope you like ... THANKS
This will be my first time mountain biking and I'm worried about being able to navigate myself correctly through the trail. Is the trail properly signposted? Any tips?
Gisburn Forest is a great place to learn. This video starts out at the Cocklet HIll car park (this is the first car park you will see if you approach from the south). Nowadays, I think you are better to drive past Cocklet Hill for another 300 metres or so and then turn right into The Hub car park (mind the potholes on the forest road!). The Hub car park gives good access to the trails, there are toilets and a cafe for a spot of lunch and usually loads of people about who are happy to give directions. There are also some good maps on large display boards near the toilets; which you can photograph on your phone if you don't have a paper copy. There is also a set of skills loops which are great for a quick warm up beforehand or a cool down afterwards. You can get a sense of direction from this map shown here: pmba.org.uk/Gisburn-Forest-map-web.pdf The forest is generally very well signposted. On pretty much all the routes I've ridden there will be a marker post at every entrance to a bike route; along with colour coded arrows as to what routes go where and how serious they are. The colour codes are important, because Green and Blue are suitable for pretty much anyone, whereas Black and Orange are serious/high-risk routes for experts with high-quality bikes. The fire roads are all wide and gravelly and can be ridden in either direction. However, the single-track routes are one-direction only; so don't go against the direction arrows on narrow trails. Last few times I've been there, there has been a picnic table at the Hub car park, at Point 17 and at the top of the Hope Line. On a good day the view from the top of the Hope Line is superb. If you don't fancy flying down the Hope Line (Orange route), it's a nice downhill ride on the fire roads (past Points 3 and 4) back to the Hub car park. The single track route through Park Wood is a nice diversion from the fire road; and should test your balance and bike skills a bit without being too risky. Just be sure to have a puncture repair kit and a pump in your group; as a bike carry isn't fun if you end up a long way away from the car. And, if it's been wet and you are going off the fire roads; a large bin liner per person is good for the car seats on the way home. Seriously though, I hope you have a good time.
Badgerland.co.uk That's great, thanks for your help!
Good close -up video of the grey squirrel.
Nice! What did you use to get the side-to-side movement?
I shot the individual frames using a wide-angle lens, then edited them into a temporary video using CyberLink Power Director. In then put the temporary video back into the video editor and selected a small part of the frame on the left then slowly panned across to the right hand side of the frame. I then saved this as the video you see on RUclips. As well as giving the side-to-side "movement", this also meant that I was able to edit out a few bits of litter which were in the bottom of the original shots.
Thanks for the explanation. It certainly worked well!
Nice. A beautiful area!
beautiful , I love your vidéo, I have a TIMELAPSE chanel you can look 😉

Vandalised, covered in vile grafetti and the silver ball has been nicked, it is unloved and uncared for. Why do the locals not love and care for this magnificient sculpture? If that scultpture was in Hertfordshire, we would care for it.
Un havre de paix
Still as beautiful as ever.Lived in Chatburn just up the road.Homesick now.
SiPendle - thanks for your positive comment. The trolls don't concern me at all - if they can't read the description then one wonders if they should really be in charge of a fine instrument such as a mountain bike, if indeed they have one at all! The aim is to show less experienced MTBers what the trail is like and to show others if they feel the trip is worthwhile for them if they are more Hope Line riders.
Never heard about this trail till someone at work told me about it , good to see it on your video . ignore the muppets if you can . :-)
Maybe it thought that Dr Beeching was underneath it?
For those of you looking for more of a challenge, you can head right up to the top of the moores at hurstwood, for some easy fast paced downhill single track, check out my hurstwood top section + elephant hills video, the moores top section starts from 1:08.
Thanks for a really good insight to mountain biking in your video for a complete novice like myself. We all have to learn somewhere and this seems perfect for us beginners as you have explained. I shall definitely give this area a go. Many thanks for posting. What a shame about certain sections of the neanderthal "great unwashed" society that we have to endure come on these sites and lower the tone. Just ignore the amoebas.
love your pictures and videos, put them on my favorites!
i want to live there!
Thanks for the encouraging message. Just to recap, Hurstwood is a safe and friendly place to learn biking skills. All skill-sets, genders and ages are 100% welcome. Brilliant place to start learning - especially if you are getting a new MTB this year. Fancy a bit more advanced riding? Then "GreatRock" run an MTB training course here. Haven't been to Witton, as Hebden Bridge & Gisburn Forest are more my kind of thing. But, if you know the MTB scene, I'll just say "Waiting for CockHill to open!"
I was just standing up for a nice chap who posted an interesting video, Read your post back you sent him, it's pure childishness. It's a form of bullying/trolling, it's not needed. I call you a 'bellend' Really is it THAT bad? You proceed to call me a '6 foot penis' (good one btw I would have been fine with that) But then go on to say your what? shagging my missus? Uncalled for. Especially as I don't have one, WHAT rubbing it in that I'm Lonely!!
If you get some-one to read the description to you, it clearly states that the video is meant to give mountain bikers an idea of what is actually on the trail. Kinda obvious therefore it's at a slow speed, as this is what new MTBs tend to be like on their first few rides. Please feel free to post your most amazing time to see if any-one can beat you over the coming weekend. And the very best of luck with getting your first subscriber on your youtube channel, some-one might follow you soon.
