my new friday evening tradition: allowing reggie to explore the outdoors!

I can confirm this, for example a hedgehog . I did catch two rats though
Good morning/afternoon/evening everyone. Hugs all round.
We will never know whether this little hedgehog is really 'Amy', but we like to think it may be. She is using the new box we bought from the wildlife hospital last summer after she had been in for treatment. It's perfect for her & we hope she will bring up a family in there this year.
Good morning/afternoon/evening everyone. Hugs all round.
Our hedgehogs are waking up, ready for Spring, and hungry. This one made several trips to the feed box last night.
We knew it would not be long before they were out & about again, but it's always a joy to see them & know they have made it through the winter.

Good morning lovely people
Happy Sunday to you all
This mornings #mugshot is to celebrate the fact that last night I actually saw a #Hedgehog at the feeding station for the time this year.
Mr DT has been seeing them for a few days, but I've lucked out!
I bought this mug at the emporium a few weeks ago for just this occasion
Sending massive love and hugs to you all

All we can do is hope to constrain them, and contain the damage, until they return to their senses. It may be some time.”

this soiled and studded but good heart,
which stippling my cupped palms, breathes –

A poem for National Hedgehog Day
https://www.scottishpoetrylibrary.org.uk/poem/hedgehog-hamnavoe/
Here's a ceramic hedgehog, fierce defender of whatever you store inside its belly. I'm new to this community and I'm a bit like this hedgehog. Since certain social media platforms are showing their true colors, I'm backing off and trying to find a safe place to settle, to share creative stuff, knowledge and fun without generating profit for scary billionaires. This might just be that place but I have no idea how it works yet. cheers!
