    Four days since finding out that the European Badger (Meles Meles) in one of the setts I have been monitoring with a trail camera is injured, I return to the injured badger hole with whatever food I could still find in my modest home.

    I live in a remote area in the woods and don't go shopping often - at most once a week - so my supplies are limited to what I need for immediate survival. I had to look for food in less common places to put something together until my next trip to town.

    So far however all my efforts to help the injured badger survive the looming winter have fallen flat - since last seen, he has not come out of his burrow and the thoughts that he may not have made it are getting stronger by the minute. However the wood rats are having a feast for the fourth day in a row on the food intended for the injured badger.

    In this video, as with the Episode 03, I used my own music as a dubbing track for the trail camera footage. It's a live recording of me improvising on a guitar to a simple backing track played back on repeat. The audio is old and of lower quality, plus it's not a studio recording so there are mishaps in the shreds, but it's my own music so no copyright notice can result as a result of its use. Previously I got a copyright notice from YouTube for using a 120 years old classical music piece in one of my videos. Hence I decided to drop that and use what's mine, regardless of quality.

    The situation regarding the badger keeps me sad, though, as the reality that he may not be alive anymore grows ever stronger. Iโ€™m however determined to not give up on him.
