I have seen a reasonable variety of what could be described as unusual or exotic animals in the wild. However, there are plenty of animals and birds right on my doorstep that I still haven't seen. For example, I've never seen a live badger, only road kill - isn't that sad?
Last year I saw nuthatches for the first time.
They were feeding on my friend’s bird feeders in the Wye Valley in Wales.

Nuthatches breed in central and southern England and Wales.
Apparently they don’t travel far from where they hatch, so this might account
for them not spreading throughout the UK.
A beautiful little bird, about the size of a Great Tit and
similar in behaviour to woodpeckers, the nuthatches I observed seemed willing to
share the seeds and nuts with other garden birds.

See you on Monday – I’m heading south east for an altogether more 'exotic' animal. Can you guess where and what the next animal will be?
