Friday at the Flicks - Ever Hopeful Hedgehog

At first glance it looks as though a young Hedgehog is trying to chase an adult away. On reflection it seems to me that the youngster is trying to persuade mother that it should be milk time:



Needless to say it had no luck but it did go in the Hedgehog House and eat some of the food that was there.

I don't know what happened to the video camera as it suddenly refused to play ball and now insists that night time will always be in b/w in spite of the extra illumination. It's too wet, cold and windy to try sorting it out as Autumn had re-arrived and looks to stay for some time.

Have a great weekend observing the wildlife around you.

    1. Maree: With all the rain we are getting there should be plenty of slugs and beetles for them as well.

  4. A great video. I wonder what can have happened to the colour. More light possibly?

    1. Adrian: With all the rain we are getting I think the wet slabs are not reflecting enough light at night. Have to wait for a dry time to see if I am correct.
