Wildlife Gardening Gardening for wildlife is simple if you're aware of what wildlife is in your area and what their needs are. You may wish to attract wildlife to feed in your yard or go further and provide a diverse habitat. Wildlife habitat necessities Cover Plants provide wildlife with protection from weather and predators as well as a place to rest, eat, and raise young. Often plants also provide food, and some will collect rain water for drinking, too. Food All wildlife feed on plants or other animals. Ideally, the diversity of plants in the yard will provide year-round food. Water Fresh drinking water is essential for wildlife. Some animals need bodies of water for egg laying and early development and some live partially or entirely in water. Ponds are gaining in popularity, but simply placing a birdbath or large plant saucer filled with fresh water will supply the needs of a wide variety of wildlife. Planning a successful wildlife habitat Wildlife species Determine which bird butterfly amphibian reptile , and mammal species visit your yard and live in your area. Learn more about them and their habitat needs.

@import "/styles/coopext_adv.css"; Butterfly and Hummingbird Gardening Using Annuals By Karen L. Panter, Colorado State University Cooperative Extension Agent (Commercial Greenhouse), Adams County April 1997 Here in Colorado we are lucky. Not only do we have many species of butterflies that frequent our area, but we also have several types of hummingbirds that visit the Front Range. Many of these creatures may simply stop in our yards for a break on their way up to the high country. However, if you want to encourage them to stick around for a while, there are a few steps you can take. To set up a butterfly and hummingbird Garden, keep a few simple thoughts in mind. Butterflies First, realize that each life stage of the butterfly has specific needs. The food sources for immature stages (various caterpillars) and adult butterflies can often be very different. Food supply is critical and so is the physical environment they each need. Since the Front Range of Colorado is prone to high winds at certain times of the year, it is helpful to provide shelter from wind for butterflies. Using windbreaks or a sheltered area is a good start. It is also important to know that most butterflies have specific host plants on which they develop. Monarch butterfly caterpillars will only develop on milkweed. Black swallowtails feed only on parsley, dill and related plants.
