Mill Rd Fairy Garden

A little urban garden where fairies and elves reside beside the wildlife

A single 400-year-old ancient oak produces 234,000 litres of oxygen a year, and may support more than 2,000 species of bird, insect, fungus, and lichen. More on why trees are awesome: https://t.co/8ogbokj7mk

Are your birdfeeders out in your garden? During autumn, birds like to fatten up as they prepare for coping with the colder months ahead!

Balloon and lantern releases create litter and #plasticpollution in landscapes and seas that can harm the environment, wildlife, livestock. Celebrate special occasions and loved ones by planting trees, wildflowers, or bee & butterfly gardens instead! Pic via @KeepBritainTidy

Hoverflies are important pollinators - with 280 species in the UK alone. Each time you let wildflowers grow, plant nectar-rich plants, allow ivy to flower, or avoid pesticides, you'll be helping these beneficial insects! Pic via @EcoRecording

Did you know? Bees are responsible for pollinating about one-sixth of the flowering plant species worldwide and approximately 400 different agricultural types of plant.

Bramble is a great year-round biodiversity booster - some 240 species of insects & mites feed on it. It offers shelter & nesting sites for birds; flowers for pollinating insects; and autumn berries for badgers, foxes, birds & small mammals (and humans too)

[Little Green Space 🦋 @LGSpace]

Please don't cut back hedgerows until wildlife has taken all the autumn berries!

Wildlife from kingfishers to water voles to otters depend on healthy rivers. But many of our rivers are polluted, including by plastic - huge amounts of which now reaches the sea from rivers. Reducing plastic use is one easy way to help these precious places 💦

[Little Green Space 🦋 @LGSpace]

Natural soap is just as effective as liquid handwash in bottles, and is better for the environment and your skin! Here are some eco-friendly soap bars to try - all plastic-free and kinder on our rivers and seas: https://t.co/IoiMNY2am3

Enjoy this boomerang-shaped display by sandpipers. Nature is amazing - lets do more to protect it!

Just 3% of our wildflower meadows are left. RT if you think we should give bumblebees a fighting chance by growing more wildflowers in our gardens, communities and green spaces, and not using pesticides and weedkillers 🐝

[Little Green Space 🦋 @LGSpace]

The irony with weedkiller is it doesn't make green spaces look 'neat & tidy' - it makes them ugly. While 'weeds' (i.e. wildlife-boosting wildflowers) can look beautiful. As these contrasting verges show. Let's give nature a chance! 🐝

[Little Green Space 🦋 @LGSpace]

Please say no to poisonous slug pellets, pesticides and weedkillers. Hedgehogs hoover up over 100 invertebrates every night!
