Creating a Bird-Friendly Garden What to Plant to Attract Key Australian Species by Stephanie Jackson

"Birds play an invaluable role in every garden, helping us to control insect pests, pollinate flowers and reduce the spread of weeds. This beautifully illustrated book provides a wealth of information to enable anyone to make their garden--however large or small--into a corner of paradise that birds will find simply irresistible. Creating a Bird-Friendly Garden outlines a vast range of plants, primarily Australian native species with the addition of some exotics, that can be used as part of an inviting wildlife habitat where birds can feed, roost and nest. It also introduces readers to 50 species of birds that will make themselves at home in a garden that has been created with their needs in mind. A bird-friendly garden provides a wondrous environment in which gardeners can interact with nature and enjoy the pleasures that both gardening and close encounters with birds can bring, and this inspiring book ensures that the goal of creating a wildlife habitat is within reach of everyone."--Back cover.
