Summary: The Best Backyard Habitat Book!
Comment: This attractive book, filled with beautiful photographs and easy to follow hints on how to share backyards with wild creatures, is the best yet published. The book begins by explaining the importance of native plants in a given ecosystem, and it includes the enormous problems that can result when exotics (non-natives) are introduced. The information is then whittled down to backyard size. The section "Providing Water for Wildlife" includes instructions and photographs on how to create an elaborate or simple water feature, and it shows how to fashion a wetland from a gutter downspout. For those concerned about West Nile Virus, there is a fact sheet at the end of the section on how to reduce the potential for exposure.
Every aspect of backyard gardening for wildlife is covered. Whether you have a rooftop garden in the city, an urban condo with a small patio or a large rural yard, this book can help you develop a landscape that will attract more birds, butterflies and other wild creatures into that space. Your life will be enriched both by the process, and by the result.
