One thing I've always enjoyed about gardens is the sense of discovery that one can get while wandering around. In a large garden with a meandering path it's always the fascination of just what lies beyond the next bend in the trail or on the other side of that hedge. In smaller gardens the discovery is usually a little more whimsical in nature (Garden Gnomes
are a potential exception here).This little pottery hedgehog is hiding in a clump of mint. When things are overgrown you can barely tell he's there, making you have to hunt to find him. When the garden is a little more orderly you still have to look for him as he's under a birdbath and partially hidden behind a wall as well. Each time you spot him though it's as though he's looking back with a cheerful "Hello there!"
