What I find surprising is that whenever I've seen it it has been within 10 meters of the spot I first saw it - and this is over a period of two weeks. Normally, I can't tell one meadow brown from another, and where there is one there are usually lots, so it is not possible to recognise individuals. Maybe because of this I don't associate them with a territory, but this one has got me wondering. Does anyone know anything about how far they roam?
