As wildlife author and environmental educator I get to visit many habitats from coastline to countryside. However, our own gardens and surrounding urban habitats provide surprising opportunities for wildlife watching both large and small. You can also make small changes to your garden to attract even more wildlife. This weblog is a record of my observation which I hope you will enjoy and also encourage you to take a closer look at your own local patch, I am sure you will be pleasantly surprised.
In my post 4th June I spoke about the plants that I had grown in my green house and have been planted into the 9 long window boxes in the front of the house and numerous small ones out the back. These plants are now third generation as I collect the seeds each year and plant the following year.
The first plants have finished flowering and the next lot are flowering. Its also lovely to see the various bees, hoverflies and butterflies taking advantage of the blooms.
