From your backyard or close by, you can experience the beauty and wonder of nature. Don't forget to bring your camera, you never know what you will see.
It's amazing to me that a few hundred feet from the backyard exists so many different species of birds. Birds that I never see out my window live so close and are consistently a source of beauty and amazement. |
Lizards, squirrels, butterflies and dogs, animals that exist with the birds. Some are food, some are predators, others, like me, just like to look. |
From the Ruby-Throated Hummingbird to the Black Vulture, your backyard is it's own ecosystem. Nurture yours, discover what works, and you will have a backyard that provides constant beauty and wonder. |
