Topiary Tips
Hello,
I've got two rather scruffy box hedges on the corners of my vegetable patch and thought that I should make them into something. I've decided that one of them can be made into a bird, but I'm not sure what the other should be. Does anyone have any suggestions? Also, does anyone have any tips to help me create a good looking piece of Topiary?
Many Thanks

This one is going to be the bird
This is the hedge that I would welcome suggestions on.
Sorry about the poor pictures.
I just do plain hedges but I fancy having a go at a pair of simple spirals one day. Here's what the RHS advises on how and when to prune and shape - https://www.rhs.org.uk/advice/profile?PID=720
