Struggling to attract wildlife to your garden?
Acorus calamus, or sweet flag, might be the answer.
This perennial favorite thrives in wetland areas and boasts aromatic, sword-like leaves that not only create a vibrant atmosphere but also welcome beneficial creatures like frogs and dragonflies.

*Wildlife garden update*
Frogs are now permanent residents of hour two mini ponds. Yesterday we also saw this very tiny frog (for reference, it was probably no bigger than 3 cm), which I try to capture on camera, but bear with the limits of my iPhone 12 mini.
We didn’t see tadpoles, so no idea where they came from, but it’s wonderful anyway.#ClimateDiary #Wildlife #WildlifeGarden #Frog #FrogsOfMastodon #Amphibians #Pond #MiniPond

#InsectFriday Police Car Moth (named for a time and place when police cars were black and white!) Gnophaela vermiculata. Not super abundant, but not uncommon here and sometimes a number seen at once. This one was late July last year on Achillea/Yarrow in the yard or #garden (there are wild, cultivated and self sown hybrids around) #insects #inverts #NaturalGardening #pollinators #WildlifeGarden #Alberta #Canada

CW: cool looking fly on plant
Hmm I could make this #InsectThursday or #InsectFriday or how about #FlyDay
Anyway, this cool customer was in the garden last #June so I guess #ThrowbackThursday works too 😉
Funny:posted it on iNaturalist, their system recognised right away that it was a photo of a Lonicera/Honeysuckle - the plant the fly is sitting on- from the close-cropped photo! Impressive, except it didn't notice the fly at all..

[Edit: Fall 2022]
I have a stumpery next to my backyard pond which is part of a wide border I'm creating around my suburban property where I leave things as natural as I can.
This is where I'm dumping my wild rose branches, some leaves and my Hallowee'en pumpkin etc. This year I've also created a little brushpile in another corner.#wildlifegarden #stumpery #brushpile #pumpkin

"Leave Leaves Alone" is a great finish to my season which began with "No Mow May".
I was left with just 8 bags of leaves for our city's compost, & the rest were mowed & left to decompose on the ground, excepting one wide strip that I left around 1 outside border.
I have to pick up some leaves because I have 3 large Maple trees whose leaves create a matted carpet, in addition to 2 crab apples & 1 horse chestnut.#Gardening #biodiversity

I think these might be the Kestrels hatched here in the Spring. Lovely to see them back. #GardenCam #MastadonNatureCommunity #BirdsOfPrey #Kestrel #Wildlife #Nature #NatureLovers #Animals #TheFens #WildlifeGarden #RewildedGarden https://youtube.com/watch?v=Qv--BWRZkLw&feature=share

Today I had an early morning visitor. I think this Eastern cottontail rabbit (Sylvilagus floridans) was attracted by the clover I’ve planted all over the lawn. Also, my yard has lots of cover with a culvert in the front yard, and some brush piles, a large stumpery and other messy areas in the back which rabbits need in order to hide from predators.

The Tawny had a good look in the Barn Owl box last night. Too rainy for owls tonight. #GardenCam #MastodonNatureCommunity #BirdOfPrey #TawnyOwl #Wildlife #Nature #NatureLovers #Animals #TheFens #WildlifeGarden #RewildedGarden https://youtube.com/watch?v=_nnfID5SC94&feature=share

CW: Garden discussion | pond, water features
@Potteriesgardener This summer my husband and I dug a small backyard pond and I already have a few other wet spots for the wildlife (a flower pot near a downspout & a shallow basin on the ground), but I'd like to give the fish tank idea a try next Spring. I live in Montreal so we're moving into winter and it's the time for garden dreams. Thanks for the idea😃

Busy Badger bringing in straw bedding. We have 3/4 acre of wildlife garden and these badgers built a sett over 3 years. #GardenCam #Wildlife
