Peter Jones, "Hampshire Diary"

• Monday, July 13, 2009 - First Fox in the Garden, and more Hedgehog news from under the shed!

Another first for the garden this morning as a Red Fox hurdled the front garden fence and trotted past the kitchen window. Superb views of a really smart individual. I often wondered last winter what was eating the bread and food off the ground feeder. We have had Roe Deer in the past, but this winter I didn't find any Deer droppings, and suspected maybe a Fox.

More Mammals this evening, as we have been treated to the young Hedgehogs making their first steps into the big world. There are at least 4 of them, and were fun to watch as they negotiated the Children's toys and Wendy House. They are starting to get quite street-smart though, and soon disappeared back under the shed when they realised they were being watched.
