I have lots of bird feeders, and I also feed three hedgehogs that visit my garden. The magpies (and a blackbird) have started eating the hedgehog food. I still put food out every night as one hedgehog feeds regularly, and a second one occasionally. It isn't practical for me to wait until dark before I put the food out, but the Magpies are emptying the food dish completely.
I know what is taking the food, as I have a garden video cam trained on the dishes, which I check each morning.
Does anyone have any ideas, other than waiting for darkness before I put the hedgehog feed out?
