I caught one last week on Friday 16 March 2007 in a garden near Uckfield in East Sussex

I have previously caught 2 'apricot' coloured moles in one garden, also near Uckfield, in July 2004

Best regards

I have caught 2 Albino moles in the past 12 months on my own land (42 acres), I was advised by my friend, who's late father owned the Land many years ago had also caught one there
Perhaps the moles here are of the same blood line still? I am awaiting the Taxidermist to finish stuffing the 1st one I caught, it is taking ages due to his high workload,  I will send you a photo ASAP.
All the best
