Wildlife quiz 

Here's a little quiz to see if you know what draws wildlife to your garden. Think about what you may already have as you answer.

Pretty simple questions, eh? I thought so too although there were one or two that were not as obvious. Let's see how you did.

I found a great site that speaks to wildlife habitats and gives even more tips to draw wildlife to your yard. It even provides suggestions on how to live harmoniously with those squirrels who love to steal the seed you put out for the birds. Backyard Wildlife Habitat offers detailed information about attracting birds, frogs, butterflies, insects, turtles, and even kids to your garden. (I'm just kidding about the kids, although it does teach children about helping to attract wildlife.) There are also some pretty interesting links such as Operation Ruby Throat and the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center. In fact, Lady Bird's site has a quote that I hope she doesn't mind me sharing. It sure brings things into perspective for me. "The environment is where we all meet; where we all have a mutual interest; it is the one thing that all of us share. It is not only a mirror of ourselves, but a focusing lens on what we can become..." Happy Gardening and invite some wildlife to your home.
