The photos are wonderful Lucid I agree with GD. Lovely to have a pond in your garden. I have one I have made into a sunken rockery with purple heathers and rocks. Today we went walking out on the mountains over near the Cairngorms and saw some amazing butterflies called mountain ringlets. May I thank you for sharing your garden photos with me. I am honoured.
Thanks for your kind comments Guernsey Donkey2 and clattnow. It's still a work in progress but putting in the pond is definitely the best thing we've done so far.
clattnow - your sunken rockery and pond sound lovely. It'd be great to see some photos.
Thanks Lucid I will try to get my husband to post some photos of my garden again they are on here the sunken rockery is not really up to much but yes will gladly put some photos of it on here it has purple heather in it at the moment and some mint. May I say nothing like yours.
We found a newt when unearthing the patio a few weeks ago, and put him in the back of the garden where it is wild and there are wood piles left undisturbed and wild stuff grows.
We eventually would like a pond.
And we had two hedgehogs on the patio last night, eating cat food and drinking water we'd left. As this was about midnight we've no photographs of last night, but this is one I took last week.
wonderful photos there of hedgehogs amazing and your frog and lizard are looking great. I am afraid I may not have news for a while as my husband collapsed at work today and has gone into hospital he was suffering from stomach pains. I hope he is out and about soon.
Yes, lovely pictures of visiting hedgehog, newt and frog - keep them happy and I am sure they will become permanent residents. Hope your husband will soon be out of hospital clattnow. Nothing wild about these lovelies but they in the field adjacent to our home.There are three heifers altogether with an electric wire fence between them and my wild flower bed.

The caterpillars showed their appreciation on the leaf of a Stachys byzantina 'Big Ears' (Lamb's Ears):

That is a stunner Zenjeff you have found a real beauty there and also grown a beauty.
I don't have a pond (yet...) but I found this handsome guy in my flowers today.
He looks rather fat, hopefully full of slugs!
