We decide to build a
hedgehog box for the many Hoggie's that visit our garden throughout
the year. Click the drawing on the left to see a larger drawing of the
box. |
 |
| The first Time a hedgehog decides to use the
box in earnest.
It looks so snug in there, will it be warm
enough, come the severe weather? |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
Our Hoggie was hibernated in the box right
through November and the first part of December. Then it disappeared
for about ten days.
Then as if a New Years resolution, Hoggie came back on January the 1st. |
|
 |
| .As the nights start to get a bit cooler, it
thinks this could do with more bedding |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
Our resident Hedgehog continues to use the
Hedgehog box, with the odd visit from long tailed mice or if you
like field mice, while it is hibernating |
|
 |
|
Our Hedgehog box and its supply of food
continues to be favoured by many hedgehogs. During this month we
have 4 baby hoggies in residence, and the blackbirds use the food
during the day |
|

 |
|
Our new hedgehog box is finished at last, and
gets fitted out with a high resolution infrared camera.
Early results look good with a small Hoggie
visiting most nights |
|
 |
|
Our new hedgehog has been running around the
garden eating for all its worth to fatten up so it can hibernate
safely, we will always provide food, but now it has entered
hibernation for at least a few days |
|
 |
|
 |
|
 |
|
Our new hedgehog box gets a visit from a very
unwelcome guest, chasing Mice not hedgehogs.
The hedgehog seems undisturbed, lets hope it
remains that way |
|
 |
|
Two hedgehogs are using the box at night but
don't stay during the day at the moment |
|
 |
|
|
|
 |
|
Our new hedgehog box is at last in common use |
