On Tuesday evening May 21 at 7pm, NEK author Charles Fergus will talk about his newest book "Make a Home for Wildlife: Creating Habitat on Your Land, Backyard to Many Acres".
Make a Home for Wildlife helps property owners see their land in new ways and gives them the tools and knowledge to effectively improve food and cover for wildlife.
Whether you live on a quarter-acre lot in town, own a 20-acre woodland retreat, or belong to an outdoor or nature club with hundreds of acres, you can make changes to the land that will turn your property into a better habitat for wildlife.
Focusing on the eastern US from Canada to Florida, the book describes basic habitat types—forests, shrublands, grasslands, and wetlands—and how to create or improve them, along with specific recommendations for projects that will help many different kinds of wildlife, including birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians, butterflies, and pollinating insects. Fergus also relates inspiring stories of landowners who have transformed their properties into wonderful homes for local wildlife. Hope you can join us.
