That Hedgehog Again

The local hedgehog continues to make nightly visits to the Hedgehog House for free nosh
(crushed unsalted peanuts and dried mealworms):



Jerky movements near the start of the video are caused by the PC dropping frames while it was being recorded!

    1. I think so Wilma. There might have been a juvenile the first time but lately there has only been a fully grown one about.

    1. It should be fat enough for hibernation time the way it is stuffing the food down Matron.

  4. This is the best yet. know that it is LED lit but what is the camera. Does it record or is it wireless to the computer? Whatever it is very good.

    1. Adrian: In fact it is better than it shows in the video. I had to have a long think - as far as I can remember it came with a nestbox I bought from a garden centre. This one is wired through to the computer. Too much chance of interference with the wireless type. Size about 2 inches across! Something like the one shown here:
