Little visitors

We've had some little visitors...and I don't mean Lucy & Alistair, although they did visit for the first time this weekend.

The unidentified little visitors have found the compost bin, burrowed underneath and are helping themselves to scraps. Not that we put anything particularly tasty in the compost; mostly raw veg peelings, tea bags and coffee grounds. We try not to put anything that's been cooked in to avoid it becoming a tasty feast!

But obviously something likes the food supply and I hope it's not rats! The thought of a small mouse or even a rabbit (have seen them in the garden) raiding the heap is okay, but not a rat.

So yet another job for the weekend - to relocate the compost bin and put it on some of the chicken wire we've found in the shed to stop our new little friends burrowing up into the heap and cut off their free lunch. Hopefully this will work.
