If you haven’t been feeding the birds through the summer, now’s the time to top up your feeders and make sure there’s water available for the birds. Digging a pond is a great way to keep warm and it’s one of the best things you can do in your garden for wildlife. Think about making places for hedgehogs to hibernate, and leave some of the season’s plants standing and some piles of leaves because these places are havens for insects and other creatures.
