We are finally here once more and what a wonderful time to appreciate the natural splendor that has sprouted up around us than on a (hopefully) sunny Sunday. The birds are singing, the insects are humming and all in the garden is beginning to burst forth in effervescent shades of green. And in order to add to the celebration and get some of you more hesitant hoomans to get up off the couch and into the garden, we figured we would make this list of cute critter pawsts to remind you of the awe-inspiring animals who will be filling your garden with life over the coming months.

So grab your favorite gardening tool, put on some gloves and get ready to be overwhelmed by the urge to jump into the garden.

  • Well, this might seem a little loopy on the face of it, but in reality you can always buy a new car, or even get insurance to cover it. But try buying a whole new garden or calling up your insurance company to cover the damage, and you will be in quite a pickle.

    The bee lives less than 40 days, visits at least 1000 flowers and produces less than a teaspoon of honey. For us it's only a teaspoon of honey, but for the bee it's a lifetime of work. Thank you, bees!

  • Boy oh boy does that put honey into perspective. And not only that but how much these mighty warriors of ecology deserve our support in our gardens. We should be doing whatever we can to make sure that our beautiful bee friends have everything they need to make their limited time on this planet enjoyable.
