Waiting for Spring

Corkscrew Hazel catkins waiting for Spring to arrive so they can open up.

The Blue Tits have been visiting the nestbox several times every day. They never stay for long but at least they seem to be showing serious interest. On a somewhat worrying front the cameras have spotted a young Hedgehog wandering about on several nights recently.

It is not unknown for one to wake for a short while when the weather is mild. I have put some food in the Hedgehog House so that it can keep up its weight and energy. I hope it goes back into hybernation when the temperatures cool down.

  1. We had some blue tits nest in our camera nest box last spring. It was amazing to see all the work they put into the nest.
