Today I collected the two boys I had delivered to the rescue a little while ago they were heavy enough to return to the wilds of our town so i released them in our back garden this eve but rather than just letting them out I fed them coz they needed to find there way so a bit of a full tummy would take the find food out of the equation for a little while so fed the first fellow a packet of food just after dark and bless him he mooched over and tucked in and then fed boy no two who stayed asleep first fellow turned around and went back to bed an hour later first fellow was away gone vanished second still asleep took about two hours till he shuffled away I would love them to stay around and I would feed and look after them but there is so much space behind out house I would think it will be autumn before I see them.again but they are in great health and I hope they have long.happy lives out in there world

A lovely story. I think you are sad to see them go but also happy for them to be fit and healthy and back where they should be. I hope they stick around for you to see them now and again.

Indeed I agree it's great to see them well and healthy but can't help feeling a little sad coz might not see them again but pherhaps in the autumn when they have other things in there minds like fattening up for winter they will remember where the food is its the time of year that they more concerned about other activities food is way down the list just now

There is a hedgehog left in the town where I feed snowball and co he or she is getting used to me I think he is out on the grass mooching about and he used to run away then last week he would stay but go into a ball soon as I would put down food he would open up and go to the food on Thursday night he put his nose to the ground and wanted for his food now we had a cold night last night so I didn't see him but there was enough food for everybody
