Do you know if any neighbours have lodges, Willpar?

Hi nuthatch, as far as I know am the only one in my street that has lodges and probably feed them. But in the general area I think more feed them cause some have had green paint n them. But there are garden sheds and decking around.

I think there are more people feeding them than you think going by the numbers you get visiting. Cats like you to think that they'll starve without a little bit of food and the same goes for Hedgies too probably.

The roads/streets ought to be allocated a different colour to dab them with then you'd know where they'd been

They might look a bit though

Good thinking Nutty. Sometimes the daftest sounding ideas are the best. Psychodelic Hogs,what's not to like?

Now that IS a good idea .
A sort of mucky browny-grey would be nice .....

Already been tried Placi. Something a little brighter like hi-viz yellow would be good and then the drivers could see them on dark nights.

... so as to make sure they didn't miss them

HI Vis waistcoats would be great, with the reflective strips.

Caught a whopper last night 1170gr. Gave it a mark, but seen the remnants of one of my previous marks on it.

Still around - that's good
