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.
The window boxes are still filled with colour as the flowers come and go, plants that are now third generation seeds harvested and planted each year.
As hoped, they have provided food for many pollinators, solitary bees and hoverflies. It all started with one pack of seeds and now 9 window boxes full of life, plus a few round in the back garden.
