If you've recently bought, made or been given a #hedgehog house, make sure you put it somewhere #hedgehogfriendly!
🦔 🏚️ 🍂
Place it somewhere quiet, shady, sheltered & dry (against a wall, fence, hedge or shed) & you may get a 'hog visitor!

As the colder months start to set in you might be tempted to stay inside but where's the fun in that?
Our winter nuts and berries spotter sheet is the perfect companion on a wintry walk! See how many you can tick off!

With autumn in full swing you might already have all the things you need to make a beetle bucket in your garden!
By filling a bucket (or a hole in the ground) with rotting wood and leaves you can make the perfect home for beetles and lots of other insects!

Remember, if you are planning a bonfire, remember to move the pile just before lighting & always check for any nesting hedgehogs.
Thanks to the brilliant @motionmanor who created this as part of #Inktober
