Summary:
This is a practical guide to different types of wildlife-friendly
garden
ponds, along with the creatures that visit and the plants that thrive there. The best way to attract
wildlife
to
your
garden
is to build a
pond
. If you want to do
your
bit to support local biodiversity, pick up a spade and start digging. This book makes it easy to attract and support a huge array of species, with fully illustrated step-by-steps showing you
how
to
plan
,
dig
, line, and fill a simple
wildlife
pond
, alongside alternatives including container ponds and more formal designs. Discover the best mix of plants you'll need to keep
your
pond
thriving,
how
to make sure that creatures can enter and exit the water safely, and the little extra touches that can attract and support all kinds of
wildlife
. Once
your
pond
is ready, sit
back
and watch nature do its work as the book reveals the creatures that will visit: the blackbird that bathes in the shallows; the wriggling tadpoles that bring the water to life; the bat that soars above the
pond
at nightfall to feast on rising insects. Every
garden
should have a
pond
, and with Kate's help, you'll have everything you need to
create
a
pond
that will teem with life for years to come.
