A garden on the outskirts of Lewes, East Sussex, which borders an old oak wood, has become home to a variety of wildlife. Observations include a badger, a family of tawny owls, and bats residing in the chimney.
The garden also features a nearly dead mystery tree, which some suggest could be a willow. This tree, despite its condition, provides a habitat for numerous birds, including tits, robins, blackbirds, thrushes, woodpeckers, and nuthatches.
A treecreeper has been seen using the mystery tree to search for insects and spiders. Treecreepers are resident in Britain and typically move to winter habitats in nearby woodlands or parks during autumn.
