The wand is great for watering small flower beds and also hanging baskets on the porch. . . Whatever tools you decide to own, be sure to give them proper care. * Keep pruners sharp and well oiled. * Treat wooden handles on shovels and 'ra~es with linseed soil or paint them to help preserve the wood. * Store hoses and other plastic _or rubber items out of the sun to exten4 their life.

This tag serves as the primary source of fundi.ng for ,the Nongame Wildlife & Natural Heritage Section, which uses the proceed~ to fund various programs focused on conserving , and protecting Georgia's nongame and endangered spccie~. The section is charged with the conse~ation and management of _ the more than 950 species of endangered and other nongame wildlife that make their homes in Georgia.

The ,Bobwhite Quail Initiative (BQI) license plate was released in December 2001 and provides funding to establish quality habitat on private land for bobwhite quail 'and other wildlife. Established in 1999 by the Georgia General Assembly to address declining quail populations, BQI has provided habitat management plans for more than 350,000 acres of private land. Ongoing ~QI management goals include assisting landowners with establishing field borderS and other quality habitat that will provide nesting, feeding and cover for quail and other wildlife; protecting water quality and ~educing soil erosion by' encouraging good land management practices; providing technical assistance and other educational efforts; 11).onitoring 'quail and songbirds; and maintaining quail populations'to sustain traditional hunting opportunities for GeOrgia's state game bird.
