I am glad you liked this post. It seems to be a hit amongst most who have viewed it.

I think next year I'll do the Woodland Garden. I was out there today raking leaves from my neighbor's house and hauling no less than three 12x16 tarp loads of good leaves just for the woodland garden.

I love this post, and I'm kind of with Gail--I wouldn't know which to choose, I learn so much from all of your gardens! I'm going to try to put some blog time in before Thursday, but in case I can't, let me say now that I hope you have a wonderful Christmas.

This time of year they are especially attracted to the garden for the food. It is really when gardening pays off as birds frequent most yards when it is warm, but not when it is cold. That is why there is so much for them and they do come and visit.
