Nocturnal visitor .

He's lovely luck you Bonkersbon, wish I had one. He's a little fatty which is good.

Thanks Sixpence we have a feral kitten that began visiting in the depths of winter so small and weak in all that snow couldn t turn it away .. so left out food for it and now he / she visits too for evening snack doesnt wildlife have a way of rewarding you for a small bit of kindness ?

great shot ray/jane, havent seen ours yet this year so hope he made it through winter ;o))

Brill he is lovely, the other evening two doors up from me had one in there garden.

It certainly does Bonkersbon and I remember that feral cat, I asked you if it had thumbs if you remember.

Yes Sandra did you see Springwatch ? they said that cold winters are better for hibernating animals as they wake and venture out in milder ones when little food available .. its better for them to sleep through it apparently.

Working his way down to you then Clarice ? Once he finds you he ll soon know when he s well off.

Aye Sixpence quite funny to see it hiss at me then tuck in lol

awww lovely BB

no i missed it ray but glad to hear, maybe will see him soon ;o))

lol Bonkerbon, you can have my squirrel that spits at me too if you like. haha.

Thanks Eileen.

Think they re pretty nomadic Sandra and shuffle round quite wide territories we loved seeing ducklings but knew we would only see them for a couple of days before moving on ..we just enjoy the visit no matter how brief.

Ha ha sixpence heard of spit the dog but spit the squirrel ?

I disturbed it 3 times while it was pinching the birds food so it jumped into the large Rowan Tree and climbed up towards the top, looked down at me so I looked back and it spat twice at me little b...er

Probably saying and nuts to you too sixpence ..try monkey nuts they love peeling them and will leave your feeders alone.

What a treat to see a tiggywinkle.....

Thank you Bonkersbon I will.

lovely visitor

Aw how nice to have a regular visitor couldn't be a nicer one ... we have them in our garden , we have a hog house tucked in the earth bank under the trees , we have noticed that some hedgehogs have been camping in the large Pampas grass outside our gate I've seen them scurrying under it .......

It is a treat...this one came out at dusk..as the bird feeders were being filled !
How lovely Amy.:o)

Lovely Bonkers I havent seen one for years.......

Lovely to see, fascinating that just as we are thinking of bed lots of creatures are just waking up, used to love sitting in the dark with my grandaughter all nice and snug under a blanket watching for the hedgehogs to come for the food we put out mmmmmmmm Magical!

cuteeeeeeeeeeeee

Thank you Milky and Aleyna...Awww how lovely Pp !

He's lovely and they do a fantastic job on the slugs :-)

Fantastic pic Bb. Not so lucky to have one in my garden, could do with one too with all the slugs. :o)

Thanks Dawn and Lindalooloo...we dont seem to have any slugs in our garden this year...but we do have a couple of well fed thrushes ! Lol

Looks like the thrush gets the slub before the hedgehog,.

Lol Dawn...well we do keep finding piles of snail shells under a hebe...dont think hedgehogs are that tidy ! Lol

Brilliant

:o)

marvelous...

Thanks Faerieflora......

Lovely... I watched a hedgehog trotting the other day...

He/she was going at quite a pace, so was obviously keen to get somewhere fast...

...probably heard about the fabulous food on offer in North Yorks ;o)

Lol Terra...so thats where she /he came from ! :o)

I recommended your special Yorkshire pudding with added cat food ...
... specially for hedgehogs... ;o)

LOL...think it would work on the OH ???

Well, it seems to have made hedgehog's eyes all white and sparkly ...
... could do wonders for BB.... Lol.

LOL !

Is it to far to ask it to travel down to the Midlands, don`t know whats happened but its been about three years since we saw one in the garden. Thanks for sharing almost forgot what they look like.

Aw sorry about that Stroller...we think there are two visit...so hoping for a family of them.Parts of our garden are so "neglected" ...they are so welcome.....

Ali is very jealous as she would love these in the garden!!

They do tend to like things undisturbed the garden was so neglected tyres old chairs etc thrown in long grass I m banned from bonfires of course so they ve had plenty of time to find a perfect corner.

Our hostas dont have a mark on either ..

Lol!
