❗ Don't delay! Place shallow dishes of fresh, clean water around your garden - they can be a lifeline to thirsty creatures like #hedgehogs, birds & bees!

Add a few pebbles so insects can perch & safely drink too!

Remember to check for wildlife if you're tidying gardens this week!
🦔✂️🚫
Let grass grow – but if you must mow, try to leave a corner or edge untouched.
Check carefully for #hedgehogs before you start work, then cut it to about a foot tall. Check again before cutting shorter!

It is absolute lunacy that we force human ideals in places where they do not belong. They are not pinching, they are scavenging, in that regard calling for culls because of annoyances is dangerous in my opinion 🤔

[Good Morning Britain @GMB]

'They're a symptom of us having a throwaway society, chucking away our litter'

'There are just too many seagulls, you are swarmed by these awful animals'

A study has found more people than ever are being attacked by seagulls so is it time to cull the gulls?

[Sam Gowland @SamGowlandDev]

The weather today has been fantastic, which called for a little adventure with my partner in crime.

Nothing like a walk through nature to reset your mind
