How to Create a Wildlife Pond in Your Garden: Incorporating Rocks and Logs for Shelter

Choose a suitable location for your wildlife pond, ensuring it gets a mix of sunlight and shade throughout the day.

Dig out the pond area, creating shelves at different depths to accommodate a variety of aquatic plants and wildlife.

Incorporate rocks around the edges of the pond to provide shelter for amphibians, insects, and other wildlife.

Add logs or branches partially submerged in the water to create hiding spots for creatures like frogs and newts.

Plant native aquatic plants around the pond to attract wildlife and provide oxygen and filtration for the water.

Maintain your wildlife pond by removing debris, topping up water levels, and monitoring the health of the plants and wildlife.
