Please watch out for them if tidying up your garden. There have been
quite a few reports of some being unintentionally disturbed. They're not
all ready to wake up yet and there's not a lot for them to forage on, so
if you do see them/disturb them, you may have to feed them. This site
gives a good idea of what to feed http://thehedgehog.co.uk/diet.htm


I am afraid that, to my shame, I killed one on the road last WE. By the
time I saw him I had no choice but to try and straddle him with the car.
The wind of the passage must have pulled him off the ground and bounced
him off the undercarriage. Very depressing. L(
