    So convincing ms#5 to do nature watch with mobile phone in hand worked then.

      I think the assembled bods are more interested in your bush.

        Which one?

        I was trimming mine last weekend.

        Rosemary is a thug. You buy it as a small plant put it in the ground and then it just doesn't stop growing.

          I find that you need to trim little and often - as if you miss a few weeks it can quickly turn into a tangled unsightly mess.

          Also it's fun to try different shapes just because variety is the spice of life!

            Badgers, deer or foxes, more likely than hedgehogs.
            If you have small holes where the grass has been ripped away, the hole is about 1-2" diameter and a similar depth, then I'd go with badgers. They are after the grubs in the soil (maybug larva are a favourite)

              I can't say that I have seen many badgers in and around Camberley / Sandhurst / Blackwater?

              Corvids aplenty...
