Also, one more thing I wanted to ask. I love putting out loads of different foods for the birds but have noticed the last year or so that wood pigeons are clearing out the food from the table as quickly as I'm putting it out. They've even started to attacking the hanging feeders knocking the foods from them onto the ground.

Would it be safe to build a meshing cage around my bird feeders and the table(more so the table) to stop the pigeons? If so what size gap on the mesh would you all recommend that can allow the smaller birds to feed but stop the greedy pigeons.

I'm hoping someone can give me some advice... I want to plant a hedgerow all around my front garden but I'm worried that people walking their dogs letting them urinate which will kill the plants or do damage while they're growing and establishing themselves.

Is there anything I could do to help the plants grow strong or do I not have to worry about this happening as hedging is more robust than I think it to be?

Any advice and tips would be Gratefully received.
