Would it help if I closed the monthly thread behind you?
I really must apologise for my lack of involvement here. When we left Tennessee a year ago, I left most of my butterfly/bird gardening there.... and I was shocked at how little life there was in my new home, despite the naturalistic setting. I realize now that someone probably did a whole lot of spraying, because I can see more of the two returning.
So, now I have to learn about the different plants and bird/butterfly species for the desert. And it takes up a lot of time! But I will commit to being here more often.
