- how to create a natural looking pond to attract wildlife to your garden

  

Wildlife Ponds

Many different creatures will visit our gardens to use water – whether to breed, bathe or drink.  A wildlife pond can become the natural focal point of any garden and create an oasis for our native amphibians, insects, birds and mammals.   This booklet will give you an insight into the importance of ponds in gardens, how to effectively make a natural looking pond, and what creatures you may expect to use it.     Jenny Steel

Reviews for this book:

''A practical, passionate, colour-illustrated guide to siting, creating, planting and maintaining a perfect wildlife refuge. '' 

Val Bourne - The Oxford Times

''Although a very small book at only 32 pages, it is packed with information which is presented in an ideal way for the beginner to the subject to understand.

The author has a friendly tone throughout, never patronising or overly complicated.

An ideal book if you want an introduction to the subject of wildlife ponds or are looking at constructing your first wildlife pond in your garden. ''
