That makes sense since the trees provide branches to sit on, potential nesting sites, shelter from wind, sun, and predators, and possi- ble seeds or insects to eat. If water is within reach too, all the criteria for attracting birds, or any other wildlife, are met. If food, water, shelter, and breed- ing or nesting sites are provided, the animals that can use them will be attracted. Similarly, to attract a spe- cific animal – whether bird, butter- fly, frog, ladybug, deer, or other critter – the food and shelter that are appropriate for that animal must be available. It can take some research to find out what a certain creature likes to eat or where it prefers to nest. Some butterflies will lay their eggs only on a certain species of plant so its larvae (caterpillars) will have the right food to eat. Certain birds will build a hanging nest in a large tall tree, while others will nest in a birdhouse or bush that is close to the ground. Learning about the habits and preferences of the creatures you’d like to have around can be a fasci- nating project, and succeeding in attracting them can be very satisfy- ing. If the aim is to attract any wildlife, or birds and butterflies in general, a smorgasbord of food and shelter plants will work. Any tree or shrub or other plant that produces seeds, nuts, berries, or flowers with nectar will attract birds and butterflies that like those products. Any tree or shrub or pile of brush or sticks that provides branches to sit on or nest on, leafy shelter for protection, or habitat for food insects will also attract the birds and butterflies that can use them. Of course, they may also attract small mammals such as rac- coons, or amphibians such as lizards and frogs, but that can add a whole other dimension to the vari- ety of wildlife. Future articles here will give specific suggestions for attracting certain birds and butterflies. Mean- while, providing some basic shelter, water and food plants will be a good start.
