1/n and now for something completely different. You all know I got myself an auto camera to video the hedgehogs in my garden.
e.g. from September 02: https://twitter.com/Gurdur/status/1301028722678673410

2/n You also all know I caught the smallest hedgehog twice, to weigh it. It was badly underweight, but I managed to get it up to above needed weight just before it disappeared into hibernation for the winter. https://twitter.com/Gurdur/status/1321892658239909889

3/ The hoggles disappeared into their winter torpor sleep, and the only thing caught on the camera was a thieving cat, various shrews and wood-mice.

4/n Then an elderly woman, around 85 years old, who lives 3km away across the valley, and for whom I occasionally do errands, check in on her each week, so on, requested the camera because she was frightened her visiting fox had been shot by hunters. So I lent out the camera

5/ She has a very large stretch of land, garden, whatever, below her house, and it abuts on open land and near woods. So I set up the camera for her next to where she leaves out food for her visiting fox.
Success! Fox quite alive.
