Although the birds are the most conspicuous wildlife, I’m just as happy to find members of other classes. Recently I’ve met:
a very elegant arachnid, who played dead when I started poking around nearby;
a red squirrel looking down on me;
a roe deer stag on our local hill;
and a hedgehog who I found on our doorstep.
Lovely – especially the very cute hedgehog. We’ve had one of those too.
