Wildlife Camera Trap - May 2020

Before reporting on my wildlife sightings for June. I thought I would share these short videos from my Wildlife Camera trap. I will add more to this page, but the first clips posted are of our visiting Hedgehog who comes each evening for peanuts.

For many years Hedgehogs have visited our garden and through the generations a gap has developed under a section of our fence through to the next-door neighbours garden. Hedgehogs have kept this opening clear over the years and this shows how they enter and exit the garden if they decide not to limbo under the gate. I have posted the exit's as they show the Hedgehog for longer.
