What is in my garden?

JaffaJedi · 25 Nov 2007 at 21:38

I live a few miles out of town (Angus Scotland) in the middle of nowhere.

For the past few nights when I have been out for a cig, I have heard a deep breathing sound coming from the woods next to my house.
My wife didnt believe me until tonight when she heard it for herself, and ran inside! . I have tried to record the breathing on my vid cam but cannot hear it when I play it back, even though it is easily heard outside.

You cant hear it during the day. Also my cats are spooked!!

I dont have a big torch so I am not going any closer to it!!

I might have a look in the AM before work. We usually have an owl or deer etc but nothing like this before.

What to do?????

locals dogging?

It might be a badger - a wolf doesn't really sound that loud.

You sure it isn't a scratching sound.

This has potential, although it's probably badgers.

Did you know badgers can make loads of cool sounds? I bet you didn't.

Let's all listen to badger sounds: http://www.badgerland.co.uk/animals/voice_detailed.html

Sounds to me like there is a stalker outside.

Seriously though, just buy a torch if you are that bothered.

Sacred Indian burial grounds?

JaffaJedi · 25 Nov 2007 at 21:52

checked the badger link... no joy

I will take a look in the morning and let you know.. If I make it back!

I did have one of those uber powerful torches but the blimin battery wont charge. If I get a decent recording of the breathing I will post a link

Badgers don't even move for cars.

Where about in Angus do you live, Stovies? It could be those big wild cats we used to hear so much about!

ANDARIAL · 25 Nov 2007 at 21:58

Sounds like a mammoth to me

Jokester · 25 Nov 2007 at 21:58

If you didnt like me being there why couldnt you just tell me rather than post on a forum about me!

neoboy · 25 Nov 2007 at 21:59

One of them?

fullspizz · 25 Nov 2007 at 22:01

Most likely badgers or a fox waiting for you to sod off inside so it can pillage your bin
