On visiting the Biodiversity Area today, I could see that many of the trees now have ripe berries for birds and small mammals. One of the packs of trees donated by the Woodland Trust was specifically chosen for this purpose. We have rose-hips, dogwood berries, rowan berries, hazelnuts and whitebeam berries.

In turn the mice which eats these fruits and nuts build nests which will be used by future bumblebee queens, and are in turn eaten by owls.
