Who among us isn’t fascinated seeing a hummingbird? They are truly miraculous. Of course all birds are when you consider flight.
Hummingbirds can literally hover motionless in one spot while they sip the nectar from their favorite flower or from your feeder. They are truly spectacular to view.
Have you ever really thought about the birds? Where they find their food? With all the developement of our natural areas many species of birds and animals are losing their food and source of shelter.
You can help them by placing birdfeeders throughout your yard and providing them with some nourishment as they travel throughout your area.
Boy is it cold outside. Many of our featured friends fly south for the winter. Yet some do stay behind. Food is often scarce in the winter. Why not give them a little help? A birdfeeder placed stategicly would be wonderful for them.
We have always enjoyed watching the birds while they eat, bathe and play. It is so relaxing.
Do you love having those squirrels in your backyard cleaning out your birdfeeders daily (hourly)? If you are prepared to go to war I can give you several ideas on how to keep the seed in your feeders.
You might try one thing and it will work for awhile and then you will have to change your strategy and try something else.Lets start with squirrels are lazy and if you give them what they desire where they can get to it easily, they will leave your feeders alone (for a while). Try putting some of there favorite foods on the ground away from the bird feeder, They like peanuts, sunflower seeds and corn.
When this approach quits working we will try another.
Stay tuned
