Badger waiting

Around this time last year I found this dead badger by the side of the road on my route to work.

Over the course of several months I gradually watched this badger corpse decompose little by little everyday until it was just a skeleton and a ragged pelt.

And then it disappeared altogether. Not sure where it went but went it did.

So anyway. I was walking along this same road again today and what did I see? A fresh dead badger. In the same spot as the other one.

They say if you work someplace for a long time then everyday seems the same. But really it shouldn't be so spot on with the details.
