The easiest way to attract winter wildlife to your backyard is to provide a wide variety of high calorie food.
Hold off on nipping your garden beds until springtime: those dead stalks, leaves, and
seedheads provide food and protection to wildlife.

A fire pit or chimenea in the middle of yard is the perfect way to utilize an outside space during the cold weather.
Winter is the perfect time to study the bare bones of your garden landscape and plan its future design.
Following a heavy snowstorm, walk around your yard and shake off branches that appear to be sagging under the weight of the snow.
Winter is the ideal time to contact a landscape contractor about updating, remodeling, or totally reinstalling your yard.
When February arrives, it’s a good time to check for weeds, pull them out, or apply a post-emergent herbicide.
During the month of January, take advantage of a dry day and mow the lawn to help clear away fallen leaves, and manicure the lawn.
Be consistent and keep feeding through the winter as birds grow accustomed to your feeders and depend on them.
Suet is considered a high energy food – good for birds since they burn more calories in the winter just to stay warm.
