Attracting, Supporting, and Enjoying Wild Backyard Birds
Making your backyard welcoming for birds not only enhances its beauty but also provides a haven for our feathered friends. Here’s how to get started:
Bird Feeders
Bird feeders come in various types, each attracting different species. For example, tube feeders draw songbirds like goldfinches, chickadees, woodpeckers, and nuthatches. Add a tray, and you might also see cardinals, jays, and purple finches. Tray or platform feeders with millet attract doves, blackbirds, and sparrows, while adding corn can bring in starlings, quail, and pheasants.
Suet feeders appeal to wrens, cardinals, and woodpeckers, while peanut butter suet attracts jays and bluebirds. Hummingbird feeders are, of course, irresistible to hummingbirds.
When choosing feeders, consider the species native to your area, and opt for durable, easy-to-clean designs that can accommodate the number of birds you expect.
Bird Houses
Unlike utilitarian bird feeders, decorative bird houses can add charm to your yard. They come in styles like Nantucket cottages or Victorian homes. However, not all birds nest in every type of house, so research the preferences of the species you want to attract.
Bird Baths
Bird baths not only add elegance to your garden but also provide birds with a crucial resource for drinking and bathing. Birds prefer baths with textured surfaces and rims for perching. In cold climates, consider heated bird baths to support your avian visitors year-round.
Creating a Bird Haven
Once you start, turning your yard into a bird-friendly sanctuary becomes a rewarding hobby. Beyond feeders, houses, and baths, consider bird-friendly landscaping and take steps to ensure bird safety and health.
Becoming bird-friendly is more than just enjoyable; it has significant benefits. These enhancements allow more hatchlings to survive and help control insect populations, reducing the need for pesticides. This, in turn, keeps the water clean and ensures a healthier environment for people, pets, and wildlife alike.
