The Autumn Leaves...

The Autumn Leaves fall from the trees so tenderly .... I really enjoy this time of year!

The leaves are all crunchy and are all such beautiful colours

Walks in the Autumn time are so beautiful

Its starting to get cold now and we are making the most out of the light evenings before it gets dark.

My Hedgehog Friend!

The other day while on my walk I met a Hedgehog Friend.

I named him Hodges.

Then the following day I saw him again in the sunshine.

Hedgehogs shouldn't come out in the daylight, they are nocturnal, so if I see him again I'm going sit quietly and see what he does and where he goes then if he is in trouble I will get Mum to take him to a special sanctuary especially for Hedgehogs.

There are not many predators in my Village and maybe he is just looking for food but I want to keep him safe!

This is me with my very own Hedgehog, Mum got him from a stall where are the money went to a Hedgehog Charity to save them!

Do you have a Hedgehog Friend in your garden?
