Wisconsin Nature at Home: 2014 Species Diversity in Review

http://wisconsinnatureathome.blogspot.com/2015/03/2014-species-diversity-in-review.html

Wisconsin Nature at Home. Sunday, March 1, 2015. 2014 Species Diversity in Review. Each year, we count the number of different birds, mammals, reptiles and amphibians, as well as bees and butterflies which we can identify in the yard. We started doing this hoping to see that as we planted more native plants, we'd expect to see the yard become more diverse. Here's what we saw in 2014. 2015 has frankly gotten off to a slow start, but perhaps things will pick up in the spring. Search to Learn More.
