Creating a wildlife friendly habitat in your yard is a great way to help birds and other wildlife!
When landscaping for birds and other wildlife it is important to use native plants and emulate the natural landscape of the area. Make sure to plant a diverse selection of plants growing at different heights to create structure in the habitat. Low growing grasses, shrubs, and forbs provide food and shelter for songbirds throughout the year. If you are unsure what native plants to use, contact your local native plant nursery or native plant society.
