Essential Wildlife Gardening Gifts

I like to have several pairs of gardening gloves for different uses around the garden. I do like the feel of warm earth and plants, but I do have quite sensitive delicate skin so I need to be sensible.  Gloves keep my hands clean and reduce the risk of cuts and abrasions and any risk of coming into contact with allergic reactions from some plants. In the colder months, they go some way to keeping my hands a bit warmer. This is even more relevant when talking about working in or clearing wildlife or indeed any other type of pond.  Some gardeners prefer to garden without gloves and I understand that. Personally, I need gloves and especially for those really messy jobs like clearing the pond.  These Briers Drain & Pond Cleaning Outdoor Gardening Gloves   are great for that as they are arm length so no water seeping in over the top. They are also elasticated at the top for extra protection and are of course waterproof. They are one size but I imagine will fit...
