I have two Sambuca Nigra growing in my garden. A wonderful black elder with pink flowers.
We get Thrushes in our garden they use an old chimney pot to bash open snail shells there's usually a mound of shells inside.

I love to see that, but most birds (and squirrels) have the sense not to come down to ground level in our garden, as there are too many places where cats can hide in wait. The robins are braver, but they're bolshy little buggers
Came across a reference the other day about growing geraniums to control ground elder, so wondered if anyone has tried that and if so does it work
