Old Garden - Huddersfield
The garden is of average size, has a lot of grass and a patio. We are lettings bits grow wild and are putting in a wildlife pond. There are hedges and trees behind the fence where most of the birds sit before coming into the garden to feed. I feed the birds most days, mainly with sunflower seeds and peanuts, and also a fat ball of some kind is usually present. There's also a bird bath which rarely seems to be used but nevertheless it's there is they need it. Oh, and there are now 2 nesting boxes, a tit box and a letter box type (for sparrows/robins). Their positions aren't ideal due to the limited scope of the garden but it's worth a punt.

So in the garden so far...
