Welcoming birds to your yard isn't about choosing the right feeders and bird food. If you want to attract the widest range of birds to your home, you need to plant a diversity of native plants. Why go green? Native plants live longer; they are drought resistant, take less water and fertilizer, they cost less, are less work and easier to maintain. And a big plus--they are good for the environment.;Tallying a year's birds in the yard -- Understanding birds' dependency on native plants -- Answering questions about natives -- Making decisions about adding natives -- Choosing native trees -- Choosing native shrubs (and vines) -- Choosing native perennials flowers and grasses -- Adding water -- Putting the plan in action.
