ARTICLE: Give a Gift to Wildlife This Holiday Season! Read this article from the Reading Eagle about creating habitat - click the link below. According to Dr. Linda Ordiway, the Ruffed Grouse Societys Mid-Atlantic and Southern Appalachia regional biologist, Pennsylvania property owners should look to create or enhance two main factors in habitat: food and cover. If a landowner is looking to plant vegetation for wildlife, I would encourage species of shrubs that provide both food and cover such as many of the viburnum and dogwood species, high-bush cranberry, or varieties of blueberries and hardy crabapples. Some of the mentioned species favor wetter areas over others, so refer to the planting site requirements available from your place of purchase. readingeagle/article/20141222/AP/312229796
