Mrs Tiggywinkle

Ah, Mrs Tiggywinkle, the once ubiquitous Hedgepig of children's tales, now, sadly, a far rarer visitor to our gardens and hedgerows.  I heard their numbers were seriously on the fall, and maybe that's so, I hope not. Though this year, after some thin years, I've seen a few about and possibly heard some. That said, the scrambling and shuffling I regularly hear about ours and our neighbours back gardens can't be positively attributed to Hedgehogs. I hope it is them though, and that they're making return.
