I was sweating a bit there for a while thinking we wouldn't get a visit tonight because of the rain.....Phew!....
Right we're off to bed, but will leave the feed on all night.......For those that might want a look to see if anything else goes on.......
Nighty night all.....

Quick update and a blatant plug 
Webcam is now live for the night.......Hoping to install a camera in the hibernation box tomorrow, which is behind the fence in the top left of the feed. Couldn't do it today, due to the fact a Hog was in residence. Hoping for a better night tonight as it's not raining as yet, fingers crossed! I'm also hoping they show a little earlier than last nights 10-30pm, but we'll have to wait and see I guess 
I'll come in with a comment if a hoggie shows before I go to bed......Happy viewing to those that are interested.

Good stuff CB 
I've just edited last nights footage down to 55 minutes out of over 9 hours in total, well pleased!
The hibernation box is empty today, so when the rain stops lashing it down I'll be fitting another camera in there, which means that the cams will go live 24/7. I'm also planning a stills shoot in the very near future, so everyone can have a good laugh watching me led down on the patio trying to snap away like a dervish.....Although I have to go pretty easy because of the flash and the fact I don't want to spook the Hoggie's top much. However so long as I'm quiet and don't make too many movements, they seem quite happy for me to be in the garden with them. In fact just to the left of the webcam image CB has posted is the garden bench and because I suffer a lot with insomnia, I sit out there for ages just watching not only the Hedgehogs, but also everything else coming and going Can get quite frenetic especially when I have the moth traps going as well
Watch this space as they say, although I'll let folks know when I'll do the shoot and when I also put the moth boxes out......So everyone can have a good laugh at my expense
Here's an image on my back garden taken from the side gate which gives an idea of just how small it is, although I do have a front garden and a back yard as well. It just goes to show you don't need acres of space to attract wildlife, you just have to plant the right things and plan a little. Note the big buddleia growing out of control Soon be time to cut it right back. The small building right next to it is my workshop/studio. Nearly all my wildlife photography this year has been done in this garden or in the workshop due to my disabilities and health problems, being rather bad this year.....So if I can do it anyone can!!!

It all seems to be working well and thanks for sharing it
I'd say my garden is smaller than yours and is currently - well lets say rather verdant I used to get hedgehogs - three of them in fact - but I've not seen them for a long time which is disappointing - the big one, presumably the male, really used to growl at me if I stepped out onto the patio while he was rummaging about .....
Last night I was watching yours at the same time as watching mum muck out and feed the pony (via webcam) and writing emails - good job I have two monitors - at this rate I might need three!
