What Wildlife have you got in your allotment/garden

[Digeroo]

This week has been a great time for wildlife.

I keep finding a grass snake a metre long in my strawberries. gave   I leaned down to pick a strawberrynand it writhed about giving me the fright of my life.  Arrived one morning to see Muntjac deer helping itself.  Mulching constantly thrown around by hedgehog.   

Do you have any interesting visitors?

Do pigeons count?

We've got several ponds with frogs. (Much to the delight of a class of Year 3 children from one of the local schools who visited this afternoon!) And quite a few bird boxes, plus several nests in the hawthorn hedge along the road. Three hives of bees. (A couple more going in soon, hopefully.)

Then there are the foxes - often bold as brass in the middle of the day! Rats, of course.

And for much of last year we had a pair of kestrels over the site, but no sign of them so far this year. And we apparently have quite a large variety of butterflies.

I've got a mole. Not actually seen it but plenty of evidence. It neatly uprooted one of my runner beans, which I've replanted and seems ok. I thought it had moved off to the next door plot, but today there were 4 molehills in my carrot bed.  :(
Also got rabbits - all plots are fenced in an effort to keep them out - foxes, and loads of sky rats.

Towny owls, sparrow hawk, bats, foxes, all sorts of little birds, frogs, newts, rats, mice, I assume some hedgehogs..not seen since I let couple of them out from my GH where they were overwintering under OH's golf jumper.. ;D All sorts of bees..bloody mosquito's..

I have just remembered the toadlets they arrived in their thousands last year on 26th perhaps the snake is waiting for its dinner to arrive.

Oh yes! My allotment is within a nature reserve and we get frogs, toads, newts and have a resident fox. We also have shrews and so many birds I hardly know where to start. All the usuals, plus sparrow Hawks, Woodpeckers and Parrots!

One of my neighbours said she thinks she saw a Muntjak but I hope not - they are voracious eaters!

We also have a coterie of the local cats who are always strolling about and who I regularly throw pots at.

One of my fellow (ex) allotment holders started a wildlife pond and so we also get frogspawn every year and the most wonderful Dragonfly's.
