How to make a pond - Small / Mini Wildlife Pond Construction

This video is about making a small wildlife pond or a mini wildlife pond.

A wildlife pond is a beautiful water feature in any garden and is so important for helping your local wildlife. Creates a home for the wildlife.

small wildlife pond design is so important as everything wants something different.

Garden ponds with just pond plants are fantastic for attracting lots of aquatic wildlife and other local wildlife that needs a place to drink and cool off. So water features have an significant importance for the local wildlife, this summer (2018) we have had a spell of 6 weeks with out any rain here in the midlands UK!

Wildlife ponds are suitable for:
Front and back gardens of any size that can accommodate a small amount of water (in other words pretty much anywhere).

Water is essential to wildlife and many creatures will make use of it:
• Frogs, toads and newts will use even small bodies of water to breed
• Caddis flies, damselflies, dragonflies, mayflies, pond skaters, snails and water beetles breed in water
• Large ponds will support waterfowl, including mallard ducks, moorhens and coots

Garden birds such as swallows and house martins will pick off insects from above the water surface and use muddy areas for nest building

The grey heron can be a regular visitor to even a small pond, feeding on fish and amphibians

Every year we get calls from wildlife Pond owners.
Even grass snakes may be seen hunting in garden ponds
