Later that night 12pm I see the hedgehog and give her an extra hand full of mealworms feeding her up for her long sleep I cant help wondering if this is the last time I will see her this year.

October 2011 part 2
15th Local nature reserve woods. On arrival we can hear birds all around us the first I see is a blue tit looking busy as usual in the tree. The crunchy leaves make it impossible to walk quietly. A woodpecker can be heard and we tread very carefully but cannot find him. 2 longtailed tits flutter into a nearby tree and 3 nuthatches explore the bark of trees on the other side of the path.. The wood goes quiet as a buzzard flies over head. We hear lots of commotion coming from the beyond the trees -geese- we think but as yet we cannot see them so we speed up as we go to the hide. Once there we see a large group of greylag geese feeding in the field I count around 1000 with others joining them from the lake all the time as they slowly move towards us.
A gaggle of geese on the ground , a flock or skein in flight.
