2021 Hoggies & earlybirds on my garden trailcam!

Fleas--not my favourite critters! I have nasty reactions to the bites from cat and dog fleas. The itching and swelling can last for 3 weeks or more and can wake me up at night--awful. I once saw a flea leap off of a friend's cat as it walked past me, and then the flea landed on my bare foot; twenty four hours later I had an itchy bite there. Luckier folk only get tiny red blotches and little else. I have handled a couple of hedgehogs in the past, took one to a wildlife hospital, but being aware they have fleas I was very careful and checked myself and my clothing very carefully afterwards, Luckily had no bites on those occasions (or perhaps I am not allergic to the bites of Hedgie fleas--lol!)

I see the hoggie was keeping up to scratch!

OK, I'll grab my coat and leave....

Horseflies, nasty critters, and I hope Gaynor nothing comes of it.

Whilst I don't like any of them, my most hated, is the tick, after getting bitten by an infected one, and the result is Bells Palsy (also known as facial paralysis, or facial palsy) on the right side of my face.

So my advice is, monitor those bites and get them sorted

whizzy compilation of last few days ... no youngsters yet!!

Feeding station looks a lot better after clean up!

Good to see the hedgies again Wendy, no bad temper now then, must be the happy season.

The smaller one definitely doesn't like the bigger one, who's a male ... that silly dance makes me laugh!

Dancing Hoggies great to see

Good to catch up on your Hoggies again. A right pair of wriggling, scratching, bopping, dancing Hoggies they are!

Last couple of nights actions
