Spikes back... The Long Preston Hedgehog watch.

[Bosscat]

Spikeys up and about (no self isolation in the Hedgehog community...) spotted some messages on the lawn yesterday, so got some Hedgehog food while out shopping today.... put it out at 6pm and at 7.30 he/she was here feeding.

The worlds going to hell in a hand basket but in Spikey World life goes on

[gawthorpe_view]

My brood, Spike, Holly, Cactus, Berberis and Snuffle are having a lie-in.
There's food out for them every night but as yet remains untouched.

2nd one arrived about 15 minutes after Spikey left (probably nipped to tell him grub was up )

Got a hedgehog box in my garden. It was occupied late last year. No idea if it still is but at this time of year, I might find out soon.

More food gone out tonight, fingers crossed they come for it.
One worry is they came out of hibernation early due to the mild winter with very little food about naturally, and they were then caught out by the floods and cold snaps.

3 for tea tonight this picture taken about 10 minutes ago ....

No fighting just eating

Wonderful.

[Bosscat]

Wonderful.

Pity they hadn't been to the loo elsewhere before coming to the tea table/bowl

Apologies for the 3 huge poo's in the foreground

[catcatcher]

What are you feeding them?

Just because there's no toilet paper doesn't mean you have to do it in the garden.

Are there any greedy stupid stock piling hedgehogs out before the rest wake up?

I believe they stockpile hedges. It's in the name.

No, the only one stockpiling food here is greedy bosscat. When the rest of us run out, he has three handy-sixed sandwich filling ready to come running!

(Sorry! )

There was one large male Choggy (Spike or Berberis) in the top corner of my garden last night, so hopefully some of the others will appear soon.

We have Frogspawn in our Pond now so life is definitely returning to the garden here ...

All the sparrows acting like rowdy bloody teenagers and the rest of our avian visitors doing what comes naturally this time of year.

Tonight 7.30pm, same time again, you can almost set your clock by the little buggers
