    &;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.
