MOLE SEASON

Now is the season when molehils appear.  The molehills are not homes but spoil heaps from the tunnels.


Actually moles have to tunnel all year in search of earthworms, leather jackets, wire worms, beetle larvae, etc, or they will starve after a few hours without food.

They live solitary lives except for the pairing season in March and April, after which between two and seven pink and hairless molekins are born.
