Animals of the garden

Some photo galleries of the animals which one can meet in our gardens. The galleries are arranged according to a very simplified classification of the animal kingdom. The objective is of this page is to help you to identify them for better knowing them. Some of them are very known and very useful for the gardener like the hedgehog or the clamping plate, others are qualified vermin or ravageurs because of the damage which they can caused with our plantations like the plant louses or the caterpillars which however will make our admiration in an adult state, others still frighten us like the spiders or the snakes. But all these animals contribute to a certain fragile balance. Observe your solid masses of near and you will notice an unsuspected life.
