Recreating a native habitat has been a dream of mine since I was about 18. It only took me 20 years, but I finally have two acres of land in the country with which to work (and play). My goal is to document the improvements I make to the property: restoring habitat & attracting birds and butterflies in addition to other wildlife.
Just the back yard!? Nah, I want the front and side yards landscaped in natives too.

Bringing Nature Home
I finally got around to begin reading Bringing Nature Home by Douglas W. Tallamy. This book was recommended to me by several members on WildlifeGardeners.org. I borrowed it from the library and just finished chapter 8. I'm only about a third into it but already recommend it to anyone interested in gardening with native plants...and those who don't understand (or believe) just how important it is.
