UK Wildlife Links.

Here are some links to Wildlife sites that I have found whilst searching for information - more to come: -

Wildlife Gardening - has information on sharing your garden with wildlife.

Microscopy UK is site which has some great illustrations in its pond life identification kit if you want to identify the minibeasts in your pond.

Pond Dipping page from the the Wildfowl and Wetlands trust - has lots of good pictures of pond minibeasts.

British Hedgehog Preservation Society

The Welsh Hedgehog Hospital - has a lovely site with a particularly good page on making a wildlife garden. Was offline last time I looked but could anyone who knows the new site let me know.

Prickly Ball Farm Hedgehog Hospital.

Froglife is a charitable organisation that works with volunteers, ecologists, government departments and the public to conserve the native amphibians and reptiles of Britain and Ireland. This is a very good place to start if you want information on the frogs, newts and toads in your pond.

Frog, Toad and Newt factsheet - from the Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust. There is also a guide to amphibian and reptile species and information on Red Leg disease.

Fanatical About Frogs - is Rajiv's webpage about his wildlife pond, including a wildlife diary.

Ice Guard - a clever device that stops your pond freezing solid in winter.

CJ Wild Bird Foods, Wiggly Wigglers, Haiths and Garden Bird Supplies all stock good quality bird food - please feed your wild birds a variety of food over the winter. Wiggly Wigglers also stock wild flowers and native pond plants.

Faunagarden - stock a variety of wildlife habitats for birds, frogs, insects and mammals. I have their frog house and a couple of different insect habitats in the garden. Choose Product Range and then Habitat links.
