Hedgehog

My Editor has a friend who runs a local hedgehog hospital called "Pricklepad", and today we were invited along to take some photos. They weren't the easiest to capture on camera as they were a little wriggly, and maybe I should have borrowed our camera club's studio lights!

Anyway, out of the 446 photos I took, this is one of my favourites (although I've not had time to look properly through them all as yet). If I remember correctly, this one is called Colleen (changed from the original Colin when it was discovered that she'd been mis-sexed!).

It's worth looking large, if you've time.

(PS There's now some more shots on Google Photos here.)

(Apologies to 60plus who's running MonoMonday this month - this photo pipped any monos to the post for today's blip! We couldn't wait many more days this month to take their portraits as they'll very soon be hibernating.)
