Evening visitor

After this morning's fun and frolics in the garden, in the evening I nearly tripped over this fella on the lawn. Obviously my using the shredder and making a racket had no effect on it's evening stroll around the garden.

I just hope the slugs and snails are also on the menu !

  1. Lucky you having a hedgehog around, hopefully he has slugs high on his menu. All we found in the garden yesterday as we had a garden blitz too was......a dead rat!!!Nice! BW Goosey

  4. Hi Goosey and Tricia, thanks. The hedgehog's like clockwork in the garden, just as the sun sets out it comes, there was a pair, but haven't seen two for a while.

  5. Hi Indianwildlifeclub, great to have you pop in and read my stuff. I liked your Red Wattled Lapwing photo, smart bird. Hope to see you back here soon, if I can keep you entertained with my news. Best wishes BR

  6. Hi Border. Lucky you having a hedgepig!

    Wondered if you were coming to the Moth Course on Saturday (Dorset Wildlife Trust)? I hadn't realised the next one was on so soon... apparently it's on Saturday 5th at 9am at Troublefield Nature Reserve. We also have our Nighjar/Glowworm walk in the evening. Just drop Steve Davis an email if you can make it. I will be there this time... Jane

  8. Hi Jane thanks for the reminder. I can't do the Moth day but quite like to do the nightjar/glow worm walk. I'll drop him a note.

    WLG - you call them hedgie, it's interesting how many different names the bloggers have used.
