Gorgie City Farm - wildlife garden


At the lower part of Gorgie City Farm, closest to the main road is the wildlife garden. it's so shady and overgrown that it feels really secluded despite being so close to the road. There's a wildflower patch, bird feeders, a pond and a hibernaculum (a nicely arranged pile of wood to encourage small animals and insects to rest and hibernate). There's also a nice bench to sit on, its a nice place to have a quiet lunch if I don't feel like the social buzz of the cafe...

Sitting outside in nature beats any cafe no matter how dazzling. Who can resist the charm of a lovely flower I ask you. :)
