Hungry young hedgehog

24 April 2008

I haven’t had my night camera in use for a few nights. However I had guessed by the food distribution at my hedgehog feeding station that we have had less hedgehog visits recently. I am also guessing that the landscaping work that my neighbour is still having done perhaps has altered the route they have… Read More Hungry young hedgehog

Hedgehogs first for camera

10 April 2008

There is definitely a lot to watch out for in the garden at the moment between the plants, birds and wildlife. What a great time of year this is! Our blue tit female is still busy with her nest and I will post her progress in a couple of days as at the moment it… Read More Hedgehogs first for camera

Hedgehog House for Rent

1 November 2007

It has been a little while since I have mentioned hedgehog visits in my garden. I have continued to put food and water out but it hasn’t always been taken. The nights are getting colder and I am very aware that our hedgehog may be preparing to hibernate for the winter. We had planned to… Read More Hedgehog House for Rent

Hedgehogs – noisy eaters?

12 September 2007

It is almost a month since we have had hedgehogs visiting our garden taking food from a dish I put out. I have read that the hedgehog was a noisy eater so last night I put out the video camera again to try and catch this on film. You will perhaps need to turn up… Read More Hedgehogs – noisy eaters?

Hedgehogs eat peanuts

3 September 2007

For over two weeks now we have seen a hedgehog visit my garden. Last night I tried to photograph our visitor with my camera on a tripod all set to just quietly open the door and snap. I positioned the feeding bowl just outside my feeding box with peanuts (plus a few sultanas) on one… Read More Hedgehogs eat peanuts

Hedgehog feeding station success!

24 August 2007

For seven nights we have followed the visits of a hedgehog to our garden. For five of these nights we had a feeding station set up experimenting with foods to tempt it in. After a few days it looked like a hedgehog might actually be exploring our upturned box, with a 13cm entrance hole cut… Read More Hedgehog feeding station success!

Hedgehog still visiting garden

23 August 2007

It has been almost a week now since a hedgehog was spotted and filmed in my garden. It has visited every night since then. Last night I had my video camera out again but didn’t catch it on film. I’ve logged our visits purely out of interest – I have no experience whatsoever of hedgehog… Read More Hedgehog still visiting garden

GARDENWATCH

I’d encourage everyone to gardenwatch, now more than ever. You just never know what you might see when you look more closely. I’d guess you’d be in for quite a few surprises, just as I have. A good start is a dish of fresh water for thirsty hedgehogs and birds and any kind of bird feeder. A warning here – one will lead to another. Our gardens really can be mini nature reserves which is great for us to enjoy and seriously helps struggling wildlife.

There are three favourite locations to gardenwatch in my garden, all at different times of the day. Breakfast, through a window with a notebook recording activity at the feeders. Lunchtime, on a bench by the pond watching what is attracted there – lots. Late evening is the last, live watching night garden activity through four IR cameras – addictive!
