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.

Long Time No See
Growing up, I remember seeing purple finches come to the feeders I put up. Since moving from my childhood home, I don't think I've seen any for years. This is our fourth winter here and this is the first one I've seen. ~smile~ Nice to see them again...well, just the one for now, but where there's one...

Yay! I haven't seen a purple finch in years. Congratulations, David!
~smile~ It was a nice feeling...like seeing an old friend.
Maybe next time you are in PA, you'll see one again. None out your way?
