attracting bees to the garden
Over to the headquarters of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) in Bedfordshire at the weekend.
I'm always on the lookout for great wildlife gardening ideas and this one almost jumped out and grabbed me.
It is a box, stuffed with straw, plantpots and bricks with holes in.
Put a retaining chicken wire mesh across the front to hold it together and there you have it.
And to prove its success, an obliging bee was entering as I watched.
You'll be seeing my own version soon.

Is this just to attract bees or other wildlife? Any luck with bees moving in? Does this count as farming or can you get away with this one if you get bees to make their own home?
