How to make your garden wildlife friendly as we head into winter.

As a new series of BBC Autumnwatch begins, we talk about how to make your garden wildlife friendly in the winter months.

As a new series of BBC Autumnwatch returns to our screens, we'll be talking about how to make your garden wildlife friendly as we head into winter.
