Our wildlife garden in July

The last few weeks in the wildlife garden have been particularly colourful. I was really taken aback by the wash of colour that greeted me next to the new visitor centre - I didn’t know where to look first. It was a paradise for insects, especially a whole host of bees. There is something very therapeutic about being surrounded by so much colour and watching the bees going about their business.


It is really worth buying a packet of wild flower seeds and seeing how much colour and insect activity you can bring into your own garden.
