the Wildlife garden
Providing for the Basic Needs of Wildlife
Nature's creatures have food and housing preferences as we do. And just like our basic needs for life, the basic needs of wildlife are: water, food, and shelter. I'm making certain that whenever and whoever drops by my garden for a visit, I'll be prepared to offer my guests refreshment, food, and shelter by choosing trees, shrubs, flowers, vines, and grasses that provide wildlife with at least one basic need. By including a variety of plants in your garden and supplementing these with other food sources (especially during the winter months in colder regions) such as bird seed, suet, and shelled and unshelled peanuts, you will encourage wildlife to visit your garden year round, season after season.
