Return of the Hedgehogs

Spotted a hedgehog in our garden the other evening, which we haven't seen since we started building the house some 10 years ago.


It must be living in the wood pile near the house and was totally unfazed by Hay approaching it. It even seemed to fall asleep against the long grass, although it could have been weak or thirsty.

We used to have a family of hedgehogs living in our woodshed when we were living in a caravan, but they seemed to disappear once we built the house.

Hay left a shallow bowl of water next to the log pile, given we've had no rain for ages and water is scarce.

Hedgeogs are nocturnal creatures. Seen during the day 'unfazed' and 'falling asleep' could mean that it's crook. (or just getting back from a hard night)
