Scott is the creator of Bird Watching HQ. His goal is to inspire you to care more about the birds and wildlife in YOUR backyard. Over the past 5 years, he has been focused on improving the habitat in his own yard by doing things like adding native plants, not using pesticides, etc. He is happy to report that over 50 species of birds have now been seen on his 1.5-acre property (that's in a suburban neighborhood). Learn more about Scott on his About page. And make sure to check out his LIVE bird cameras.

  1. This is awesome. I live in TX so when I have a little more time, am going to check out the various species and plants. I have deer, fox, squirrels, raccoons, etc in my yard. And some flowers that the deer won’t eat. Thanks for your hard work putting this together. Am going to forward it to a couple friends who live in other states.

  2. While reading the wildflowers section, I noticed there were zones. However, I see no map to show these zones. If there’s anyway you can include a map of these zones, please.
