For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Add woodpeckers greater and lesser spotted, nuthatch, treecreeper, goldfinch, wren, dunnock, and unfortunately the occasional visit from a sparrowhawk, hedgehogs, foxes, frogs and common newts dragonflies, butterflies(buddliea bushes x5) all in a Birmingham suburban garden. We also hear tawny owls at night but haven't seen them
In the winter we also had Redwings and a couple of fieldfares as well as a grey heron trying to get to the goldfish
I am lucky as there are big trees, oak and ash in the neighbours gardens and I have the flowering food plants and 2 ponds,one ornamental and one proper wildlife pond. I even allow nettles to grow at the back so butterflies can breed as well as feed I also have loads of feeding stations, bird tables and a big bird bath and while my garden is designed to be wildlife friendly it has a lovely cottage garden feel....I love my garden you can tell can't you...
I only wish the house martins that fly in the area would nest under our eaves, and I also wish we had more bats in the area am looking into putting up bat boxes to encourage them.
