In the garden

Gardens can prove a real life-saver for birds at this time of year. Fallen apples can still be a good food source, which you can supplement with sliced fruit from the kitchen. If you walk through oxleas wood at this time of year you might hear a woodpecker hammering on dead wood, hunting out insect larvae in the bark. If you see a flash of red it's likely to be a great spotted woodpecker. These attractive birds may venture into your garden, especially if you provide a peanut feeder.

Jobs for January:

• Prune apple trees
• Check birdbaths and ponds, and remove ice in cold weather
• Put out fresh water for birds
• Plan for the coming yeart
