Make the backyard a place wildlife is actually welcome. Journalist and gardener Nancy Lawson makes the case for gardening with compassion for every species, and lays out how to do it. Through home-gardener profiles, interviews with scientists and horticulturalists, and plenty of practical advice, she applies the lessons of ecology to your own yard: planting native species, building habitat for baby animals, birds, bees, and butterflies, creating safe zones, cohabiting with the creatures usually written off as pests, and letting natural processes shape the garden. A thoughtful guide to attracting wildlife and resolving conflicts with the animals that share the space.
