I was at a very large rath once that had a medieval church built in the middle of it. All that was left at the church was the outer walls and trees were growing in the middle...There was a gate into the church which I climbed over. While navigating the trees I noticed out of the corner of my eye something moving by my feet. It was a bloody great badger! It hadn't noticed me so I backed away slowly and climbed out. It must have been severely ill not to notice me and to be out in the middle of the day...but it was a shock..particularly knowing how nasty they can be...I didn't want to be trapped in this ruin with it.
