Wild Backyards
Wild Backyards visits homes in Baltimore, Carroll, Frederick, and Howard Counties and tells the tales of habitat creators who share their success in luring many native species of birds, mammals, butterflies and frogs. "Wild Backyards" features an impressive collection of simple-to-create-and -manage, wildlife sanctuaries created by local homeowners. The program offers a wealth of information on how to match desirable wildlife habitat design, making the best use of backyard space available, and caring for, and maintaining, a mini-Eden.
