This little fellow has followed me whilst in the garden. Hard to tell the difference between male and female robins. Males tend to be a little larger and their heads are a slightly different shape when viewed from above. The female has a more pointed ‘V’ shaped peak where the male is a more square…

Cutting back grass slopes reduces the competition for wild flowers to grow strong. Removing the grass will eventually reduce the richness of the soil, which is also beneficial for wildflowers.

Any small pile of garden arisings left in quiet areas can become a home for hibernating animals.
