Birds and the Bees in Your Garden

Send an invitation to the birds and the bees. Plant a variety of flowers and herbs that will bloom in turn from early spring to the end of summer; pollen and nectar from the flowers are a vital source of food for the bees. Place bird houses with seed to attract birds; hang the feeders high enough so cats can’t get them. Birds and bees in the garden are a divine inspiration for affairs of the heart.
