The first part focuses on the more common types of wildlife found in a variety of habitats and the plants and supplementary food that will attract them. The next stage is how to choose the right plants to attract backyard wildlife. A directory of over 200 species makes the process clear and simple and every plant is accompanied by a full-colour identification photograph. Each entry explains how to grow the plant and which types of wildlife will benefit. This book¿s wealth of information and beautiful photographs will appeal to gardeners and wildlife enthusiasts alike., There can be few gardeners who have not experienced the thrill of a close encounter with some form of wildlife in their garden. Birds and butterflies are an absolute joy to watch flying among the trees and flowers, and there are many hidden creatures that scurry and slide underneath the plants, which also have an important role to play. This book, written by award-winning authors Christine and Michael Lavelle, is aimed at gardeners who want to encourage wildlife to take up residence in their backyards, stemming from the idea that creating a wildlife-friendly area is not only exciting and fun, but also improves the overall health and wellbeing of the garden.

These projects, as well as vibrant public spaces throughout the country from Ghirardelli Square and Market Street in San Francisco to Lovejoy Fountain Park in Portland and Nicollet Mall in Minneapolis grew out of a participatory design process that was central to Halprin s work and is proving ever more relevant to urban design today.In "City Choreographer," urban designer and historian Alison Bick Hirsch explains and interprets this creative process, called the RSVP Cycles, referring to the four components: resources, score, valuation, and performance.However, this historical account is not just a catalogue of significant events but gives a deeper analysis by exploring fundamental issues such as who owned those treed landscapes, why they were created and who had access to them.Birds (some with teeth) share the skywith flying reptiles that range in size from bat-sized insectivores to majestic and deadly Dragons.This unparalleled collection of scientific information on, and photographs of, Mexican wildlife belongs on the shelf of every mammalogist, in public and academic libraries, and in the hands of anyone curious about Mexico and its wildlife., Mammals of Mexico is the first reference in English on the more than 500 types of mammal species found in diverse Mexican habitats from the Sonoran Desert to the Chiapas cloud forests.Inside you'll also find a Trail Finder that categorizes each hike (e.g., climbs of peaks and ridges suitable for hardy hikers, hikes along lakeshores for average walkers, and wildlife viewing and natual history strolls for families with small children); Green Tips; and information about local lore, points of interest, and the area's array of wildlife.Writing with his customary candor and humility, Meyer delivers insights both practical and profound and applicable far beyond the football field.Political sustainability at the city level differs in several important ways from academic principles of sustainability.Given the rapid urbanisation underway globally, and the need for all our cities to operate more sustainably, we need to think about how spatial planning and design can help transform urban systems to create low carbon cities, and this book provides key insights.Post-industrial urban spaces typically include abandoned factories, disused rail lines, old pits and quarries, and de-commissioned landfills.
