Erinaceus concolor
Twin female hedgehog babies Asteria (Αστερία) and Leto (Λητώ) feeded by me, on organic goat's milk. They were transferred in my hometown's wildlife center, Volos city Greece, after their nest was destroyed by mistake, during some construction process -the project engineer, rescued the babies and send them to us. (Their mom survived too, but she was too scared to come back, and the babies had to be removed at once). They grew up and were released in the wild, 2 monts after they came to the centre :)

Erinaceus concolor spikes, grow and get harder much faster than the Erinaceus europaeus, and besides that, I don't really like to hold a baby animal without a soft material wrapped around it (+ that milk usually splashes while feeding with the bottle and I need smthng absorbent all the time).
I found the flower species, and I wrote it under your spotting :)
What a neat story and it must have been so much fun to hold those babies. Would it hurt without the towel?
I found an Orchid Bee in a non-orchid flower (sorry I'm so un-botantist) and was wondering if you know which flower it is, so I can put it in the spotting?
