After a summer with barely a single reported sighting of hedgehogs in Wanstead, this tweet is welcome news indeed.

Glad at least one was seen we used to have two but for the last two years not a sign
We’ve had a group of four hedgehogs in our garden over summer, sometimes all together but more usually singly. Their favourite foods are plain peanuts & prawn crackers…yes we have put out raw meat, raw fat, dog food, etc. but these are the winners. We also have foxes, toads, frogs, newts, spotted woodpeckers, bats, etc. etc.
