For this year’s Garden Year linky I’m continuing to share advice from Songbird Survival about how we can make our gardens the best they can be for birds.
This past month seems to have whizzed by and been one dominated by blossom, which is never a bad thing. Our little crab apple tree has finally blossomed and the branches are thick with white, fragrant flowers so I’m hopeful we’ll have a good crop of crab apples in the autumn. I also got my fill of blossom in the gardens at Gravetye Manor in West Sussex, and that’s the post I’ve linked this month. We also went along to the Newark Garden Show again at the end of April, so look out for a post from there soon.
#ThinkBirds
Consider taking part in #NoMowMay to support insect life, and/or celebrate International Dawn Chorus Day on Sunday 4 May by putting out a treat for the birds, and enjoying their birdsong.
