National Nest Box Week starts today so it's an ideal time to think about ways to safeguard the variety of plants and animals in our green spaces.
Unlike the one above, nest boxes don't have to be cute! They just need to be warm, dry and the right size.
You can find out more - including how to make one - on the British Trust for Ornithology website.

A seasonal reminder from the team at Brighton & Newhaven Fish Sales.
Local boats are now out catching lots of scallops along with many other local fish.
The scallops are landed, taken out of their shells that night ready for the shop counter in the morning.
Scallops are highly nutritious,they are a very good source of Vitamin B12 as well as Omega 3, fats and magnesium. They go beautifully with coriander, garlic, parsley butter, spicy chorizo, bacon, pancetta or black pudding.
The lovely new shop at Fish is open Monday to Saturday 8am to 4pm for scallops as well as a huge range of fish, frozen fish and shellfish.
