“Paved front gardens rose threefold in a decade from 2005, according to a 2015 study by the Royal Horticultural Society in 2015.

In London, where 1,500 properties were flooded during storms last year, half of all front gardens are paved over.” https://t.co/88cfywErsE

@raechel_kelly Good idea, we get rather annoyed with ours, and it feels less personal if you use "computer" or HAL (showing my age with that reference!)

I have lovely mining bees 🐝 🐝 in my front garden again this autumn. Can anyone tell me what they are doing when they are buzzing around low on the ground where there aren't any flowers? #bees #wildlife #confused
