    No hedgehogs in the garden yet this year, but have seen no less than 20 as roadkill this week so far :(:(

    I stopped both lanes of traffic on way to work on monday morning to make sure one got across the road - but with the amount I am seeing dead -it almost seems like people go for them rather than avoid/letting them cross.

    He's appeared again, dog was going mad at the back gate and peaked over and he was there left out some cat food but think he might of been on the way out when the dog saw him so he may not come back tonight for the cart food I'm just happy now that I know he's ok.. i might make a feeding station over the weekend and get cat biscuits so at least can leave them out for a few nights before they go off..

    Awww, delighted! Been following thread hoping for that. Cutest little creatures ever :)
    Used to love seeing them when I was a kid, but think we had them every year back then - in the south Dublin 'burbs - they weren't unusual at all.

    Not far from the truth. Roadkills, while unfortunate, do seem to be an indirect indicator of the population size.

    Only sighting on the camera this morning was a big cat having a nice feed for himself at 3 o clock this morning .. I'm away the weekend but will build a feeding station on Sunday when I get back to keep the cats away from the food..at least the cat went home happy.
