‘Bird Heaven in Devon’

'Bird Heaven in Devon'Our garden birds have helped to win this months (May) heat of Best Bird Garden 2011 which can be seen in Mays edition of Bird Watching Magazine on pages 44 – 45 with some pictures of our feathered friends along with an article of how we manage the garden and all the winged visitors too.

The prize is a variety of sacks of special seed mixes for feeders and ground feeding birds from Wild About Birds which they have welcomed and already started to munch on!

You can enter your bird and wildlife garden over at – www.bestbirdgarden.co.uk.

  • About us

    Tony is a naturalist and environmental artist. Laura is a free range creative web and print designer. We've recently moved from the village of Ipplepen to the town of Newton Abbot with our two children Ralph and Oli, our dog Henry, and numerous cats (none of whom would ever dream of eating birds).
