Wildyard...you are a hoot! How did you get the name "Wild"yard, that name sounds like it might be hard on your delicate sensibilities, also! :wink:[/quote]

LOL Quite the contrary, it comes from the fact that my yard, like my house is left largely to it's natural state. I believe one should interfere with nature as little as possible. LOL

Actually, it comes from the fact that when I was a Master Gardener with the Co-operative Extension, one of my specialties was habitat gardening.... encouraging the creation of spaces for wildlife in the increasing development of once rural areas. My yard was certified as "wild" by both the National Wildlife Federation and the state of Ohio.

Now I live in a very rural area of upstate NY, and my yard is wild without much help from me. LOL.
