Called the \"Colonial Audubon,\" Catesby published NATURAL HISTORY OF CAROLINA, FLORIDA, and BAHAMAS in England between the years 1731 and 1743. The book contains 109 bird illustrations, 20 color plates, and text. The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Press has recently reissued the book in paperback.

Abstract:
By making some changes in the backyard, homeowners can create wildlife habitats. Adding water will attract many creatures. A birdbath is the simplest way. Reduce lawn size and add more trees, flowers, and shrubs. Put out bird feeders and boxes. Stack logs and rocks to provide nesting places. Control the cat, so that attracted wildlife will not feed the family pet.
