Hi Jill, I followed your links to NWF. I also ordered the sign. My neighbors disapprove of my landscaping. They think I should have grass and meatball shrubs. So, I had to get the sign! I have lots of flowers, shrubs, trees, and less and less grass and woods in my backyard. I have purple martins and bluebirds that winter over every year, hummers, and lots of other birds. I love to be outside and truly enjoy how beautiful all the colors and beauty nature gives you.
I do enjoy your articles.

LOL @ "meatball shrubs." I saw some rosebushes today that had been pruned into unmerciful symmetry!

I hope your neighbors start looking at your birds and butterflies... hopefully the sign will make them pause & consider! (Yes, I know that's asking a lot from a little sign... I'm an optimist!)
