The intention should not be to make the wild creatures tame but to gain pleasure from observing them about their daily lives.

You are more likely to get wildlife in a garden where there are plants and trees and pesticides are not in use. Having a pond is also a great idea as you will attract frogs and aquatic insects as well as providing a valuable water supply for other animals.

Compost heaps are commonly used by hedgehogs as shelter and they also attract insects which in turn provide food for birds.
