The Hedgehog in the Fog by Francesca Yarbusova

Je vous présente mon nouveau voisin de dessous. Il s'appelle Kebab.

Il est arrivé tout seul, comme un grand, avant-hier.

Dans la gamelle, il y a de l'eau fraîche et 2 cuillères à soupe de croquettes sèches pour chats. Tant que les températures nocturnes sont aussi basses, je lui fournirai un peu de bouffe, pour l'aider à tenir jusqu'aux beaux jours.

Je ne l'ai pas encore vu moi-même et je ne veux pas le perturber.

The European #hedgehog is one of our best-loved mammals,but populations are in grave decline with the species being newly classed as “near threatened” by the International Union for Conservation of Nature in 2024.A major cause of hedgehog deaths is road traffic accidents,which are thought to kill up to one in three hedgehogs in local populations.
A new study suggests that ultrasound repellers could be used to deter hedgehogs from roads,reducing the number killed by cars

Saw a hedgehog on the Fallowfield Loop before dawn. Thought it was a rock at first. Didn’t run it over. 🦔

Rear latex tube (Vittoria, brand new, second ride) failed catastrophically in Ashton. No obvious reason went off like a gun shot and blew the tire off the rim (was just pulling up to some lights). Quick change to a butyl tube, but quite nervous about the front one for the rest of the ride. Would have changed that one too, but how many spare tubes am I supposed to carry! 💥

Considering popping down to the shops to buy a tube at lunch.

"All the back gardens connecting to mine are joining in on my idea to make it all more critter friendly. We're making #hedgehog corridors by making holes in the fences & everyone is adding small ponds for the local frog population. The frogs had a rough winter, a lot of them tried to survive in places they couldn't. So, we're helping them out."

What an enormous amount of #kindness on show in this story!
