Have You Done Something Wonderful for Wildlife?

Throughout April we are asking you whether you have done something wonderful for wildlife which has made a difference. This could be planting some wildflowers in your garden which are now attracting lots of bumblebees, or putting up some bats boxes which now have a bat roost in them. If you think you have done something wonderful then we are asking you to tweet / post your photos to us on Twitter or Facebook, with a short explanation using the hashtag #loveourcreatures. We will then select our favourite three stories and write a blog about you at the beginning of May. The winning three entries will also win a Creature Candy mug, tea towel and notebook worth £32.00......
