DAILY ACTIONS

Wildlife

Water for birds and butterflies

I will create and maintain fresh water sources for birds and butterflies in my garden. This is important to me as I want to attract pollinators, birds, and butterflies and other beneficial insects to my urban meadow. They need water sources in my dry climate to survive.
