Yes! She's back after an absence of a couple of days. I'm so pleased to see her again. When you have a regular visitor at the same time each night, for them to skip a couple of days is, quite frankly, worrying.I believe I saw another bigger hog in the feeding station a little earlier tonight too. All the mealworms had been eaten anyway, so I put some more out and that's when Scratchy turned up. (I took the photo out of the back window - I wasn't going to risk scaring her off by going outside, especially having missed her these last couple of days).

I know how you felt. The hogs here do that to me occasionally. If I check the overnight recording I usually find they have arrived a couple of hours later than normal. It is always a relief when they go back to their usual times.
ReplyDeleteI am pleased she has returned.
ReplyDeleteGoing by the amount of poo in my garden I must be getting a lot of visitors although I don’t see them
Great news, yes they do keep us wondering don't they. I'm looking at one having a nap in our house at the moment but didn't see any visits last night. However, when I went out to return my cables back to their box last night I discovered I'd left my torch on the ground (on) in this area. I had used it to top up the dish with mealworms earlier. All the mealworms were still there. I guess the warmth of the torch put the hogs off coming near :-( Won't make that mistake again :-o
ReplyDeleteGreat news! Lovely little Scratchy.
