I'm thrilled that for this and the next two blogs, Wildlife Friendly - who so regularly responds to this blog - has kindly agreed (I asked very nicely!) to show us her garden. If you like what you see, I'd love to hear your comments. I for one think she is doing an amazing job and am so grateful she has found the time to put this together. Adrian
