Gardening for the Birds
“This book will put you on the road to supporting and enjoying the life around you.”—Douglas W. Tallamy, author of Bringing Nature Home
You may already have a bird feeder in your yard, but you can attract a far wider range of species if you create a bird-friendly landscape. Gardening for the Birds shows you exactly how to do it. With profiles of hundreds of native plants, extensive seasonal bloom and fruiting charts, and techniques for creating a balanced ecosystem, this book helps you turn any space—from a small, urban terrace to a large suburban yard—into a home for a fascinating variety of birds. Close-up profiles of birds from across all regions of North America teach you their nesting, breeding, and feeding habits.
