Message: [QUOTE="Sean Regan, post: 248279, member: 5841"] Breaking news (1/06/23). [I]A report from Spike Prickle, the BBC's Hedgehog Correspondent. (why not? They have them for everything else!) A further break-in and theft as previously reported, occurred at the same address early this morning at 4.41 am. Clearly shown on our security camera. [ATTACH type="full" alt="Capture.PNG"]96931[/ATTACH] Once again, there was a theft of a bowl and its contents. When asked, why the further security measures promised had not prevented the crime, a spokesperson said. “Piss Off!”[/I] Seriously, I have put more metal rods and wires around the perimeter, so I’m thinking it may be getting in by scaling the fence between the two gardens and dropping down, through the azaleas, which won’t do them much good. Foxes do collect stuff, when we had “Fiona” and her cubs under our summerhouse four years ago, she used to steal small soft toys and balls from other gardens and bring them back for the cubs to play with. We’ve now lost two bowls. This is why. [ATTACH type="full" alt="bowl.jpg"]96932[/ATTACH] I can only imagine that it is either just a china collector or maybe it thinks if it puts the bowls in another garden, someone will fill them again. It was probably on top of the other house as it thought it could scale the fence from there, it’s not been recorded getting out that way since I put wires across the corner to prevent this happing. It’s easy enough for it to get out by scaling the Japanese lantern near the rockery. I didn't put another bowl out last night, just loose pellets I didn't put another bowl out last night, just scattered pellets around in front of the house. I had the camera covering the fence and azaleas. The fox didn't appear last night. [/QUOTE]
