Wildlife Austin Update
The results of the 2010 Neighborhood Habitat Challenge are in! Westcreek tied for fourth place, which
is pretty impressive considering this was our first year to participate. We had a total of seven habitats
certified through the National Wildlife Federation. Bouldin Creek was the winner of the neighborhood
challenge with 14 certified habitats. For more information on the winning neighborhoods and the
projects that they completed (including some great photos), visit

Meanwhile, the butterfly garden at Patton now features stepping stones decorated by the girl scouts. A
certified wildlife habitat sign will soon be installed. Be sure to visit the garden this Spring!
