It's vital to provide #waterforwildlife all year round - especially in warm weather when water can be scarce. 🌡️🦔 Offer shallow dishes of fresh water & a few pebbles so #hedgehogs & other #wildlife can all safely drink💧 A lifeline for a thirsty #hedgehog! 🎥 Paul Bunyard
Ghost pingo #pond resurrection, Norfolk Brecklands. 35+ wetland plants have returned to this lost pond since it was brought back to life for @NorfolkWT <2 yrs ago. Rare species galore. The most successful form of ecological restoration known? @hburningham @tim_holt_wilson
Well it’s only been a few weeks but this #weepond is loving life! Great to see the Brooklime with its small blue flowers out too 💙 #ponds #nature #wildlife #biodiversity #freshwater
After only a couple of days of being added(well, chucked in) to this #WeePond these aquatic plants have stabilised and upturned themselves already! #nature #pond #gardening #freshwater
These old wooden half barrels make for some beautiful #weeponds. All you need are some oxygenating plants and some gravel/sand substrate at the bottom! Thanks to Luke Pike for the photo.

Here's a cracking #weepond from Steve Mould using a plastic planter in a raised bed!
All you need to get started with your own #weepond is an old basin and some sand /stones. These provide both rooting options for water plants and shelter for invertebrates! #ponds #gardening #wildlife
Today’s #hedgehogweek competition is for a @hannah1turner #hedgehog moneybox! To be in with a chance of winning, make a film title hedgehoggy – eg, ‘When Hoggy met Sally’ or ‘SlumHog Millionaire’ 🎬 🦔 🍿 Reply below & we’ll choose a winner at random after 8pm tonight!
This week is #hedgehogweek keep an eye out for your friendly hedgehogs in your local gardens and green spaces! Remember that #WeePonds make for important drinking water sources for hedgehogs as well as habitat for invertebrates @hedgehogsociety

Check out this fabulous Wee Pond made by Deborah Breare. What a great idea! Remember, the more habitats the better! Share the love of Wee Ponds for nature using #WeePond #nature #ponds #freshwater #wildlife
Our Wee Pond is sitting pretty! Now it's secure its time to decide how you want to decorate it! #WeePond #GardeningTwitter #freshwater #ponds #biodiversity
Once you are happy with the location of the Wee Pond, pack lots of soil around it to keep it snug. If you have a lid, cover the top to stop lots of soil spilling into the empty Wee Pond. #WeePond
If using an old planter to host your Wee Pond, a good tip is to make sure it's level, that way you won't have one edge sticking up and exposing the plastic as the water spills out the other end! #WeePond #GardeningTwitter #freshwater #ponds #biodiversity
Any wee box or basin can make a great Wee Pond. In this case, an old storage box is just right, ideally take something 20-30cm deep and make sure it doesn't have holes in the bottom! #WeePond #GardeningTwitter #freshwater #ponds #biodiversity
For our first Wee Pond, we are bringing life to this old planter! #WeePond #GardeningTwitter #freshwater #ponds #biodiversity
We hope you like our new Wee Profile Pic! #WeePond
Any container can be used for a #WeePond as long as it is water tight! Basins make for excellent ponds like these
