At the village of West Knoyle, Wiltshire, is Bush Farm. The owners farm American Bison both commercially and as a tourist attraction. They stock other species from the Americas, but I shall start this week with a wild, Wiltshire Grey Squirrel - interestingly, originating in North America.
I caught it bang-to-rights helping itself from an animal feed-trough.

Since putting together this blog I have been back to Bush Farm and spoken with the owners. As a result I started on a collaborative project with them. I am most grateful for the access that they have granted me. Watch this space.
