Hedgepigs and bonfiresHedgepigs and bonfiresToday we were going to have a bonfire of all the stuff cleared from the garden. The wind has brought down branches and the rest of the garden and borders have been tidied, we have quite a heap now and it was a good day for a burn up. Thing is ...there was a young hedgepig asleep on the top With the help of Felix and the colonel (they are always on hand) I lifted it up , checked it was ok and put it in the Alpaca shelter with some dry leaves and cat food in a bowl. I think it was just cold . Anyway, later I went back to check on it and it was gone, there is a large thick conifer hedge nearby so I hope it finished it's nap under there . Its always a good thing to check piles of vegetation , as these little critters love a nap in the leaves.
Looove chucks!
