Things you can do
Backyard Buddies is very much a local program. So what you do as a backyard buddy will vary depending on where you live and the wildlife that is native to your area.
You are a backyard buddy when you:
- Add native plants to your garden to provide natural food sources for birds and butterflies (get more info from the Use less pesticide in your garden to help protect butterflies, lizards and frogs.
- Avoid feeding native birds and animals honey or sweet things as it cause dietary problems. Plant natives, which are high in nectar to attract them into your garden.
