Neighbour Pat's Hedgehog

Just had a bit of late night nature excitement as thanks to neighbour Pat, we have just got up close and personal with Mr Tiggywinkle who was slug hunting on her back step. He's now been popped back near the lane to keep him away from her slug pellets but there's plenty slug action in my garden to keep him happy if he wants to come visit, don't think cats would bother him after an initial prickly sniff. Closest I've ever got to one of these wee beasties, it's prickles felt like stroking pine cones. Wasn't interested in the cat biscuits so it's back in the wild now. Kids loved seeing it, thanks Pat!
