We're now officially out of British Summer Time, and the air has a decided chill to it. Today proved to be one of those autumn days when the light was perfect, the skies blue and the colours vibrant. The birds were quiet, so I switched lenses and focused on the landscape.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, in the garden tonight nicked-ear was back, looking as graceful as ever. She tends to scour the borders, and this evening her attention was caught by something moving in the undergrowth. I was about 30 feet away so couldn't see what it was that had attracted her. Until later, that is. If you look closely in this first shot you can see a hedgehog moving away from her. Apologies for the bad case of eye-shine, but that comes from using flash at a distance. <\/p>\n

She sniffed around that spot for a few moments but then moved away, leaving Mrs Tiggywinkle to go about her nightly foraging.<\/p>\n
