Veronica in the wild

Today Stassney and I were playing with Veronica (my hedgehog for the uninformed) in between rounds of Guitar Hero: World Tour and decided to take her outside and let her roam around the front yard. Now usually Veronica will still be defensive about her surroundings, especially when we have her out on the bed or on the floor. When we put her in the grass she immediately took off and I was trying to follow her with my camera but because she's so small I had to lay down to get any good pictures and she was moving so fast that I had to keep getting up, getting down, getting up, getting down. She did a lap of the front yard, even walking down the gravel next to the road which Stassney and I joked was Veronica hitchhiking trying to find a ride out of here.

When Veronica tried to burrow herself into a rosemary bush we decided it was time to take her in and 63 pictures later (Thank God for my DSLR being able to take a lot of pictures very quickly) a few really good ones came out of it.
