Garden bird count


In my country, once in a while , is a counting of birds, butterflies, bees, life in common in our environment , mapping the diversity and numbers.
This weekend we are counting garden birds. They are declining every single year, sparrows, blue tits, blackbirds ect. Looking at my neighbourhood, it's almost logical. No green gardens, only grey concrete tiles. And to color it a bit, plastic grass. Our garden is a
thorn in the side of many direct neighbours. But we have hedgehogs, birds, insects, and also stray cats who find a shelter and cat food in our garden too. Change starts with ourselves. Some pic's from my 50 m² small garden... Hope you like it!

Marigolds! good to know, I discovered that strong tasting herbs like thyme, rosemary, peppermint, lemon balm and lemongrass were left for what they are! Apparently no food for snails, but they didn't keep the snails for eating all the others....Tried everything, coffee grounds, crushed eggshells, black pepper... Think they LOL at us, those little bastards!😆
