Did you know that hedgehogs can travel up to 2km in a single night while searching for food?

You can help them by cutting a 13 x 13 cm hole in the bottom of your garden fence, allowing them to come and go freely.

If you have a wall, you can remove a brick or dig a small channel underneath.

Ask your neighbours to do the same and create a hedgehog highway for hedgehogs in your area.

Friday Fact! Buzzards are the most frequently seen medium-sized birds of prey. They usually have brown upperparts and paler underparts, with large rounded wings and a short fan-shaped tail.

Listen out for their cat-like, 'kee-yaaa' calls as they soar in high circles over grassland, farmland and woodlands.

Buzzards eat small birds, mammals and carrion, but will also eat large insects and earthworms when prey is in short supply.

When volunteer ecologist Wendy Birks recorded a scarce blue-tailed damselfly, Ischnura pumilio, at Ughill Farm this summer, she discovered the species had never been logged in this region before. So, the question is, how did the species arrive at Ughill Farm? And why is it here?
