We were just relaxing in the shade of our magnolia tree when we heard a rustle in the undergrowth and there popped up this little chap.

It’s years since I saw one, in fact it’s so long I can’t think when it was. So this is another mammal to add to the ‘seen’ garden list on top of our nightly hedgehogs and less frequent foxes plus loads of bats.

Just hoping he’s not going to destroy our lawn like the last two did over winter.
