We Often Go For Walks In The Park Where We Live,

in one of our walks we saw one of these, 


it was in January 2019, I commented at the time:

"on Wimbledon Common, they have Wombles, and in Beckenham Place Park, we have Tribbles, like the parakeets that live here that escaped from captivity, the Tribbles escaped on the return of the USS Enterprise, one shot out between Diana and Myself as we were walking through the park",

 "and as I approached, curled into it's usual soft purring ball, as they do when they feel threatened", of course I was making a joke about the fact that someone had lost the bobble from their hat, and then yesterday I read that another tribble had been found in the UK

photographs from the Daily Mai© Kennedy News and Media, a walker had found one dishevelled and cold so she took it home, the next day she took what she says she thought was a motionless mammal to Lower Moss Wood Nature Reserve & Wildlife Hospital, in Knutsford, Cheshire, in a box meticulously lined with newspaper and even placed a small dish of food next to it, as she remained by its bedside, at the hospital an amused Ms Kotze said: 'It was the first admission of the day. The lady came in with a box, she said she had found this baby hedgehog on the pavement and it was cold and she picked it up",

Ms Kotze above, added that if people see a hedgehog out in the open during daytime they should be taken to a rescue as it is a sign they are distressed, Janet said: 'It’s a golden rule that hedgehogs shouldn’t be out in daytime, especially little ones like that, but she did absolutely the right thing - aside from the fact that it wasn’t a hedgehog, you can read the full story here.
