I am studying an area on campus known as the walled garden being an area diverse and abundant in wildlife it seemed a good place to do this project: I am going to observe the change in the species of animals and plants that live in and around the garden from the middle of winter through into the start of summer. This page will show photography and descriptions of each visit I make to the garden over a period of time.

DAY 1
Today was the first day in the walled garden observing the animals and plants. Yesterday I put up the bird boxes with cameras in. I hope that in the spring I will be able to watch the chicks grow in the box. I have also put up bird feeders to try and attract birds to the garden and photograph them from the hide. I put out sunflower hearts, Niger seed, black sunflower seeds and a mixed seed. Birds are already visiting the feeders with lots of tits about. ( blue tit, great tit and a coal tit are the species of the tit family that I have seen so fair.) other frequent visitors include a black bird, robin and a hedge sparrow.
