Your front yard could carry a variety of plant and wildlife, if you just let it go without mowing it.  Birds actually bring in lots of other animals and plants.  They bring in plants by eating seeds from the surround area and secrete them onto your lawn when they visit your birdhouse. 

Next insects, smaller bugs, microorganisms, and worms come in to that area to much.  Plants grown, bringing in other birds, squirrels, and raccoons that also what to feed.  This process creates good soil on your lawn and other plants and animals that are bigger come in to grow.  Create a little ecosystem around your house.
