Live footage from a webcam inside a badger colony in the South Lakes is now available to watch online.
Cumbria Wildlife Trust and Glen Rothay Hotel and Badger Bar, Rydal near Ambleside, have teamed up to bring an the spectacle to people across the world.
In the grounds of the bar and restaurant lives a colony of wild badgers, and the hotel's Badger Bar & Restaurant stream the live web cam every day. At dusk, the bar staff feed scraps to the badgers and that's the best time to watch for them.
Staff from Cumbria Wildlife Trust will be at the bar and restaurant to tell people all about badgers from 7pm on Thursday 19th May, Thursday 16th June, Thursday 14th July, Thursday 15th September and Thursday 13th October.
Paul Knowles from Glen Rothay Hotel and Badger Bar said: “In the grounds live a colony of badgers, and we feed them every night at dusk. You can get quite close and take photos. In summer quite a big group can emerge but just in case you miss them, there is a stuffed one in the bar!
"There are only a few emerging so far this year, the most we have seen is five, and they are coming irregularly, sometimes right on 9pm but often much later. A fox or two has sneaked in for a free feed, and a hawk was there recently as well.”
