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
