Back garden No. 7 - EEK

Yesterday to my surprise I saw a mouse climbing along the branch and then down on to the squirrel proof bird feeder in our garden. When I opened the door it scampered away back along the branch and over the nearby wall. Time to reposition the bird feeder.

Refilled the bird feeder again.

Autumn planting plans for Wilmington Square?

We would like to discuss with neighbours ideas about planting more sustainable, wild life friendly plants in Wilmington Square. At present colourful annuals are planted and then ripped out and disposed of several times a year. It could be more beautiful and better for the bugs and bees if we planted a thoughtful mix of native perennials. May be this could be mixed with a colourful border of annuals? It would be great to hear from anyone who is interested in gardening and enjoys Wilmington Square to gather input and views on this idea so that hopefully we can come up with an Autumn planting plan.

Spa Fields - Refilled bird feeder (twice)

I refilled the Spa fields bird feeder on 31st and again this morning. The Wilmington Square feeder remains untouched. The first patch of wild flowers which was planted next to the Spa Fields' feeder has grown beautifully and there is a wild mix of yellow and dashes of red.
