Wildlife-Friendly Courtyard Garden Ideas 🐦🪴 | Shelter, Pollinators & Biodiversity

In this video, Open Air Living explores how to turn any courtyard garden into a thriving wildlife haven. Starting with an overview of why supporting local biodiversity is essential, we guide viewers through a rich selection of ideas that prioritize shelter, food, and clean water for birds, pollinators, and beneficial insects. Whether you have a large patio or a tiny courtyard, every space can become a sanctuary with the right choices.

The video walks through 20 creative and practical sections, covering everything from planting native species and installing water features, to layering habitats and providing nesting areas. Each idea is designed to increase biodiversity while keeping your garden aesthetically beautiful and functional. Special attention is given to pollinator-friendly blooms, composting for healthy soil, and creating safe zones for nocturnal and amphibian visitors.

By the end, viewers will feel empowered to make meaningful changes that not only attract beautiful wildlife but also contribute to the planet's ecological health.
