I put in cedars and large tangles of honeysuckle, grapevine, and greenbrier. The cedars last a little longer, but the brier and vine tangles are denser and more effective shelter for a season at least. I put the main pile only about 15 to 20 feet from BG bedding area and fairly close to the feeding ring. I have lots of surviving YOY BG from last summer.
