Doorcam got this last night. am sure the smaller one is an early juvenile, but not managed to catch it yet.

Just a plastic dish nuthatch. I feed a cat in the evening. Thought it was a stray, but turned up one day with a collar. But it waits every evening on my doorstep for some food.

Quite polite face to face but rather a cheeky hidden dismissive gesture, I thought :(.

Just caught and marked another juvenile hedgehog. Came in at 344gr. Was a feisty little thing. So at least it is healthy.

Gotcha!! been trying to catch another juvenile for the past several days. Tonight I managed it. Was with what may have been mum inside doorfeeder. She had my mark on her but very faint. Re-marked that one, took the juvenile in to weigh, came in at 340gr and gave it a mark.

Just caught another in doorfeeder. Larger juvenile than last night came in at 421gr. So it has got me thinking that there is a smaller one still out there. hopefully one of my night cams will confirm. I need another gallon of paint.
