Nesting the Garden of Life by Neelima Khemchandani Pdf

"Every thought we create is like a seed which we sow in the soil of our mind. It does not matter whether the thought is positive or dissenting, it will get seeded deep if we constantly keep on working with it. The book conceptualizes and compares life to a garden where every seed we let in the soil will reap into a plant. As we read more, the chapters enclose how to cultivate this life into a garden of content and happiness. We all have been provided just one life and in this one life, we have one opportunity to cultivate the best garden of life. The book unfolds chapter by chapter on how to select a seed carefully, sow them and harvest the best garden to cherish. It does not matter where we are in our lives right now, what age group we are, what we wish to pursue in our lives, if we understand the basics right and make them clear in our life, nobody can stop our garden from being burgeoned into the one we all would love to adore and live each day. We all have the capability to turn our lives into the cream of a crop and enjoy the delicacy each day!"

The Humane Gardener by Nancy Lawson Pdf

In this eloquent plea for compassion and respect for all species, journalist and gardener Nancy Lawson describes why and how to welcome wildlife to our backyards. Through engaging anecdotes and inspired advice, profiles of home gardeners throughout the country, and interviews with scientists and horticulturalists, Lawson applies the broader lessons of ecology to our own outdoor spaces. Detailed chapters address planting for wildlife by choosing native species; providing habitats that shelter baby animals, as well as birds, bees, and butterflies; creating safe zones in the garden; cohabiting with creatures often regarded as pests; letting nature be your garden designer; and encouraging natural processes and evolution in the garden. The Humane Gardener fills a unique niche in describing simple principles for both attracting wildlife and peacefully resolving conflicts with all the creatures that share our world.

Baby Birds by Julie Zickefoose Pdf

If you’ve ever wondered what goes on in bird nests, or what happens after a fledgling leaves the nest, come along on Julie’s sensitive exploration of often-uncharted ornithological ground. This beautiful book is as much an art book as it is a natural history, something readers have come to expect from Julie Zickefoose. More than 400 watercolor paintings show the breathtakingly swift development of seventeen different species of wild birds. Sixteen of those species nest on Julie's wildlife sanctuary, so she knows the birds intimately, and writes about them with authority. To create the bulk of this extraordinary work, Julie would borrow a wild nestling, draw it, then return it to its nest every day until it fledged. Some were orphans she raised by hand, giving the ultimate insider’s glimpse into their lives. In sparkling prose, Julie shares a lifetime of insight about bird breeding biology, growth, and cognition. As an artist and wildlife rehabilitator, Julie possesses a unique skill set that includes sketching and painting rapidly from life as well as handling delicate hatchlings. She is uniquely positioned to create such an opus, and in fact, nothing like it has ever been attempted. Julie has many fans, and she will gain many more with this unparalleled work.
