I thought this might be the right thread for this: Mrs P found a young hedgie about to cross a busy road this morning when she was walking the dog (about 5:15am!), and with no nice fields nearby, she picked it up and brought it home, releasing it into our garden and then waking me from my slumbers to tell me all about it at 5:45am. And get me to go look at it - but it had already wandered off.
However, about half an hour ago it appeared, hoovering up spilt bird food under the feeders, so I went out and peered at it - looks very healthy, young and fit. It managed to squeeze under the fence at the bottom of the garden, so I'm wondering if it's found a safe place there. Our garden is full of dropped berries and pears at present as well as bird seed and dried mealworms, so hopefully hedge, who Mrs P has named "Benson" (...and Hedges?), will set up camp for the foreseeable. I'll set out the trailcams shortly to find out.
