Wild Birds
Attracting birds is much easier than you might imagine, just think as you were a bird, why would you visit your yard?...
yes, you are looking for food, but once you eat the free food you still need a place to get a drink and take a bath. You
also need great hiding places, safe nesting spots, and no predators.

Many birds will nest in man-made bird houses. Purple Martins houses may look like a hotel and hold up to 40 pair at a
time! Bluebirds are making a big comeback in the eastern U.S., thanks to people who put up so many nest boxes that they
call them "Bluebird Trails". Woodpeckers will nest in your yard if you don't cut down trees when they die (leave the
snags standing for the birds). wildbirds.com
You could also plant certain flowers, shrubs and trees, so you can attract specific birds. Hummingbirds are especially
attracted to flowering plants. You don't need a huge yard. A few flowerpots on the windowsill might work.
There are a huge variety of wild birds, the most popular ones are described in the following list: Anhinga, Bittern,
Blackbird, Bluebird, Cardinal, Chickadee, Coot, Cormorant, Cowbird, Curlew, Dipper, Dove, Duck, Eagle, Egret, Falcon,
Finch, Flicker, Geese, Grackle, Gull, Hawk, Heron, Hummingbird, Ibis, Junco, Kingbird, Kingfisher, Magpie, Mockingbird,
Nutcracker, Oriole, Owls, Pelican, Pheasant, Robin, Sapsucker, Sparrow, Titmouse, Warbler and Woodpecker.

Protection:
You can help protect wild birds in your yard by following a few simple rules. The most common causes of accidental
death for birds are cats and flying into man-made objects (like windows). So keep your cats indoors and take steps to reduce the
reflection from your windows. If you find a baby bird, leave it alone or place it back in its nest. The parents are
probably nearby and will continue to feed the baby bird even if it has climbed out of the nest. If you find an injured
bird, you might want to call a local animal center and ask them for help.

Feeding:
Feeding birds is lots of fun. There are many types of feeders for each type of birds. The seeds and food you put out will
also determine which birds will come to your feeders. Some birds want to eat on the ground while others prefer eating while
hanging upside down. If you want to attract hummingbirds, prepare a nectar, using sugar and water. Place the nectar on a
feeder designed to put nectar (make sure the glass or container of the feeder is red, hummingbirds are attracted to this
color). Also you need to check out the feeder quite often, it needs to be clean.

Place you feeder in a spot that is easy to see and easy to refill. You could place it near cover, such as a
thick evergreen tree. The birds will feel safer coming to your feeder. If the birds do not come to your feeder
right away, try sprinkling a handful of seed on the ground under the feeder.
