I never started out as a wildlife gardener but without a doubt by growing a wide variety of plants wildlife has found its way to my garden. Since writing this gardenwatch blog I have began to appreciate garden birds more and through feeding them we now have hedgehogs visiting the garden too. Now I appreciate all the wildlife that visits the garden and find myself interested in learning more about it.

My wildlife videos can be viewed through the links below to my original postings in my main diary. As postings on hedgehogs are very popular you can see a complete list at Hedgehog visits and links where you will see photos too.

Most of my videos shown have been taken in my garden but some have been taken at reserves too. I really enjoy taking and editing them with music is great fun too!
