I opened the patio umbrella today to discover a family of tree frogs & 4 geckos had moved in. i told them they could stay - just not drop down on my head. 3 hours later, just 1 gecko remained.
My project for the next couple months is to get small raised beds in some sort of layout in the back yard. Then dig up & move the various plants into the beds. I think everything out their is either for hummers or the butterflies.
