Another New Year and the Community Wildlife Garden Volunteers
have been busy getting the garden back into shape.
We have reduced the height of the privet hedge around the
entrance to the garden, to open it up and let in more light.
We have extended the existing display of Cornus alba (dogwood) running alongside
the cascade. It will look spectacular
next winter once it’s established.
Unfortunately our pond has sprung a leak! But that didn’t deter these swans from
dropping in for a visit. The pond will
be repaired soon, in time for the spawning of frogs and newts. Hopefully, it will be teeming with
life in the coming months.
There is plenty of work to keep the volunteers occupied - mulching, planting, weeding, pruning and much, much more. We will keep you posted on our progress.
In the meantime, here are some of the creatures who come to
watch and keep us company while we work.
