Our wildlife area is coming together nicely thanks to #30dayswild focusing my efforts to get it done. Today we added to the accommodation by building a bug hotel.

We started out by using yesterday’s frog and toad abode as a base…

.. and building upwards using the materials we had available.. brick pavers and slabs.

Next we filled the gaps with all different bits and pieces; leaves, sticks, twigs, wood, bricks and bamboo canes, leaving some gaps for future finds like pine cones.

To finish we built a small log pile next door…

.. and made sure the bugs know where to come!

Anyone interested in a stay at our hotel with adjoining log pile, private pool and damp cellar?
