Hi Nic, Simbo65, hope your hogs are safely tucked up for winter. Well, still got little Heidi eating from the station. She has started using her old route now most of the fireworks have stopped. Having said that, we’ve had them going off the last two nights again. I’ve just filled in the rspca’s form for the anti firework campaign, again, and a few others I’ve come across. The last law change needs implementing as loud banging fireworks were banned in the last law change. Someone needs to get a grip on this. Yes, I put my trail camera out again, in the wrong place! So still don’t know what is using the hey filled flower pot! Now got 181 pictures of… You guessed it, cats., but success, saw 2 pics of Pippa (I guess) going back into the hog house. Never saw her come out though! There are now lots of fallen Hawthorn leaves where the house and makeshift house I made up is, but guess it’s too late as they all seem to be safely hiding away now. The bat’s have been seen before at night flying to and frow at the other side of our laurel hedge. So guess there’s insects in there. I’ve only just bought a couple of buddleia this year so hopefully there will be more insects next year. I hesitated getting them as there’s some talk about them not being too good for gardens as they are not native plants. Going back to the bat’s, they fly quite close to your head when your out at night, it can be a little disconcerting, but I’ve not known one actually hit anyone or get tangled in your hair. You just feel a swoop over your head. I’ve just had 3 teeth out at hospital, so will say night night for now. Best wishes.
