Having moved to my new home about a year ago, I haven’t yet managed to find any bat activity. Yesterday I thought it was high time to take my bat detector out and see if I could hear any bats in my garden.
I stepped outside and turned my bat detector on ….. nothing. I carefully walked around and still … nothing. Then I caught a very faint ‘tip tap tip tap’, I turned a little and there it was again ‘tip tap tip tap’. I knew it wasn’t a bat, but what was it? I scanned around and again the ‘tip tap tip tap’ continued. There walking across the path was a hedgehog! My bat detector had not found a single bat, but it had amplified the sound of a hedgehog out for a stroll!

As for today, the last day of 30 Days Wild. I finished off a little project I started 3 weeks ago, painting pebbles! It’s taken me a while but it’s been wonderfully relaxing to do!
I have loved taking part in 30 Days Wild again this year, it has pushed me to try a few new things and helped me find new wild places. With National Insect Week in the middle, it has been a brilliant month!
