Note* wildlife meaning butterflies + little furry animals, rather than the strange wild people of Sheffield’s nightlife!


I’m doing some research for an article and would like to find out if people take measures to attract wildlife, even if they don’t have a garden. Do the city living apartments have gardens?

Perhaps you use window boxes to grow herbs for cooking & these attract butterflies?
Do you have a favourite park or nature reserve you regularly visit? Where is it?

Do you get birds nesting in drainpipes or have you put up bird boxes? Bird Tables? Do you have an allotment? Do you save your potato peelings & teabags for composting?

How does your workplace help wildlife & the environment?

Of course you can. Rats, cockroaches, flies. You name it you will get it.:hihi:

My mate is not allowed to put plants on his balcony as it might spoil the look of the building (I think the architect and builders have already done that).

There's a family of ducks that sometimes live in the goit beneath my window. Does that count?

Or the heron that flew by the other week? Or the racing pigeon (it had a ring on its leg - i wouldn't have been able to tell otherwise) that had a kip on my windowsill one night?
