IT’S HERE! - After months of hard work, and a realisation that there’s a growing demand for native #wildflowers, #plants, #shrubs #trees & #pond products, #WildYourGarden will be launched on 1st April as your one-stop shop for all your #wildlifegardening needs👇

We have chicks! The first of the 16 eggs of Mrs. Percy the Pheasant have hatched in my #wildlifegarden. Check out the new LIVE nest cam I’ve set up on YouTube for you all to watch in real time, and see how many more chicks hatch! 😍🐣👇

@savebutterflies @WildYourGarden @BBC_Springwatch lovely to watch the butterflies down near the River Culm in #Devon #Butterflies #bbcspringwatch

Ridiculously excited to see my first Brimstone of the year today! 😍 And, just like buses, three came at once!

[Wild Your Garden @WildYourGarden]

Now is still a good time to put up boxes for birds. Fingers crossed these Kestrels take up residence! 🤞

[Joel Ashton 🍃🌳🍃 @_JoelAshton]

Spent the afternoon putting up this box for the local pair of Kestrels. Fingers crossed they like their new apartment - it’s got a fine bed of gravel, is positioned out of the prevailing wind & overlooks what will be my #wildflower meadow later this year…what’s not to love?! 😆

[Wild Your Garden @WildYourGarden]

Grey Partridge anyone?! 😍❤️

[Joel Ashton 🍃🌳🍃 @_JoelAshton]

Ridiculously excited to hear Grey Partridge calling in the field behind my garden this morning! Here’s a clip I took yesterday of a pair that were a couple of miles from the house. Great to see several pairs of this Red Listed bird in the area @_BTO @StephenMoss_TV #Lincolnshire

@DorsetWildlife Thanks Jack ,there is a lot of new thinking now on feeding garden birds. My friend Joel Ashton @wildyourgarden has a great advice on his UTube channel explaining why we should not stop altogether as is suggested by some conservationists

[Joel Ashton 🍃🌳🍃 @_JoelAshton]

No sooner had I stopped to take in the finished creation of my latest #wildlifepond than it was visited by six swallows, stopping by for a drink & to gather some mud for nest-building! Amazing! 😍

[Joel Ashton 🍃🌳🍃 @_JoelAshton]

One of the many benefits of having a #NoMowSummer - an incredible display from our resident #PipistrelleBats, thanks to the sheer abundance of insects in the #garden, flying above the longer areas of the meadow ❤️ 🦇 @BatConIntl @_BCT_

interesting to see a pr of LTTits gathering nest material so early in the yr..One watching while the other gleaned then they flew off together to a bramble bush at Hatch Pond before returning time and again for more.

Want to know a great way to help the birds in your #garden at this time of year? Provide somewhere for them to spend the night & try one of our very own @WildYourGarden #RoostBoxes. Check out my latest YouTube video on them here👇

Just wanted to wish everyone on here a very #HappyNewYear! Thought I’d leave a little thread of just some of the projects I’ve undertaken to help #wildlife in 2024. Here’s to much more habitat creation, everywhere, in #2025. Thanks also to all of you that have helped wildlife 💚

Numerous Speckled Woods today on Hartland Moor but also nice to still see 2 Small Heaths.
