Wildlife Corner

HI ALL.I was just wondering if anyone knows of any magazines for wildlife gardening?We're thinking of making a bog garden and absolutly adore our garden birds. There seems to be a gap in the market?Vicki

It is plausible that it was fishermen, and it is even possible that it was not done out of malice (hear me out). This is one possible theory, I'm not saying it is right, or that it is morally right even if it is what happened. If the seals had got their heads stuck in nets, and then drowned,...

Has any one a plan or instructions for making a large bird table suitable to encourage a variety of birds, red squirrels etc into our garden.

Hi Kathy, Raindeer & Deer are from the same family just different species.. Other than that "fact", both are members of the deer family, Cervidae, the main difference being that the reindeer (an old world caribou) is the only member of the deer family where both the male and the female grow...

Hi Kandy Thank you for your most kind comments and I hope you are feeling better today

Good idea Kedi. I might do that later just in case it comes back. It was quite sad really because it buzzed around me and checked me out for probably a couple of minutes. At one point it landed on my coat for a few seconds. It seemed confused, probably because I was wearing my big green coat and...

Hi Peri,glad you like the little chap.I took loads of photos because he came every day for months and I was a bit worried that the cats would get him as he obviously had never experienced cats before and had no fear of them.When we went away for a holiday in July i put out lots of seed for all...

Hi all...Found another today and he was no more than 4 mil in total with his legs spread:hehe:

The food is going on a daily basis now and the water, though I haven't seen him I am finding mini carnivore poos that I can only think belong to a hedgie. The slug population has decreased notably (not sure if thats a seasonal thing but hedgie is getting the credit!)I went and I treated myself...
