Mr DW has done a wonderful construction job and I am going to see if Mr BB will make me something like that for our new house (WHEN we get there).

Hope you get some interesting residents!<br />We never clear the huge amount of apple windfalls, and they've kept the birds fed all winter.<br />One thing that makes my blood boil is the extent the hedgerows are cut back this time of year, when the buds are food for many birds. Not so bad on IOW, but where my folks live in the Midlands the hedges are barely a couple of foot high, even the ones nowhere near the roads!<br />Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16734243399284789336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4493398068080107368.post-8862727692313166352014-03-23T12:16:22.033-07:002014-03-23T12:16:22.033-07:00Thank you for the wildlife tour of your garden.

It must be good to live so near the forest - not sure about the ground elder though. I once lived on an estate which had previously been a wood and we never ever got rid of the ground elder in the garden.
