Blog about a certified Wildlife Habitat on Pittsburgh's North Side.
About Me
- Pittsburgh gardener
- Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States
- I live in the Brighton Heights Neighborhood of the City of Pittsburgh PA and recently certified my yard as a wildlife habitat. please feel free to check out my Blog and I hope you enjoy it.When I first bought my property the house was in disrepair and the yard was nothing but dead grass over grown weeds and garbage. It is now a habitat that provides wildlife with the four basic requirements needed to thrive. These are food, clean water, cover from predators, and places to raise young. I have provided these in my small space and will continue to improve on these elements of my garden. I am also an artist and I get a lot of inspiration from my garden. I am fascinated with tiny houses and enjoy cooking and music. I have two adopted cats from a rescue, and I have a one eyed cat that was a stray and needed surgery so I took her in. They are all house cats so they do not tear up my wildlife habitat. They do enjoy sitting in the windows looking at the other animals that visit my yard.

Happy Thanksgiving
The snow we had last Sunday did not kill the plants that are flowering. Since I have the wildlife habitat and I am trying to plant more native plants I did not plant any mums this year. My recirculating pond pump is still turned on. I will be shutting it down soon and will fill both levels of the pond as full as I can. I will wrap up my hose and bring it inside to store for the winter. I am really enjoying the new windows because I can look out on the wildlife habitat area without going outside in the cold.
