Despite the cooler, darker evenings there have been no sightings of the
hedgehog that was introduced to the garden in June. In fact he hasn’t been seen
since the evening he was released, so although I’m concerned, I still have hope
he’s still around.
The hedgehog will hopefully be getting ready for hibernation, but the
swallows have finally all departed on their way to warmer climes and a winter
in Africa.
I think and hope this year has been a bumper breeding year for my
favourite bird; judging by the number of birds on the telephone wires I’m
pretty confident it has been
Of course the cooler weather is now gradually bringing the garden birds
back into the garden, if that makes sense.
There are a number of blue tits now devouring peanuts as they, along with
great tits, wait for the sunflowers to make available their seeds.
I’m looking forward to more birds coming back, with a slight hope that
the increasing number of berries on the pyracantha will attract the odd redwing
and/or fieldfare; neither bird have ever been seen in or near the garden.
