In this, second episode of Injured Badger Hole Adventures, I show why I harvested unripe Aguaymanto (Physalis Peruviana), aka Cape Goosberry or GoldenBerry, I then extract the unripe berries from Calyx (paper husk they are in) while showing the Aguaymanto plants that froze dead before the berries on them had a chance to fully mature.
In the batch of harvested berries I find two ripe ones, so I extract seeds from them to plant them in the coming season. I add the unripe berries to the apple pieces and bone leftovers from a rabbit dish and save it all for the injured badger.
At the injured badger hole I find the food left there the previous day only partially eaten. A sign that the badger likely didn't show up and just the omnipresent rats had a bit of a munch. Nevertheless, I add the extra food I brought with me, filling up the cardboard box.
Upon returning home, I looked at the card I took from the trail camera to see if the badger came out of the den. The compilation of some of the videos from the trail cam is at the end of the episode.
In this episode I also introduce more cuts in order to keep the overall length of the video shorter. I sometimes talk too much or go off on a tangent even though I’m not the most eloquent person in the world, so in order not to bore you with my ramblings too much, I cut out pieces of the original video to keep the final edit briefer.
