106 year old Edwardian cottage garden with a 106 year old house attached which is equally challenging. Some days I feel like I'm the same age.

What a difference this #leucanthemum is from the other one in the front garden. This one is about 18" from one of the bird tables and is perfectly intact whilst the other one is shredded by all kinds of nasty pests. Time and time again the birds are the saviour of plants by eating all the bugs. My Hostas are the same. Under the bird tables perfect anywhere else chewed to pieces.

@ishbel It really does work. I try to move the susceptible plants close to the bird feeders. You do have to feed the birds all year round. It really is the wildlife food chain at work. 😀

I think I have a mad cat coming into my garden at night @angipangi Thrashes about amongst my plants and seems to particularly like my daisies. Broken stems everywhere in the morning. 😩😩😩😩😩

Morning @ishbel Sorry I can't stop 😂 at the thought of a moggy thrashing your plants in the middle of the night. Could it be a fox. Sounds like it could be something bigger than standard moggy maybe another 'Beast of Bodmin'😂😂

You're right @angipangi could be a fox. Certainly doing enough damage, but why?
