Spring Feeding Tips for Your Feathered Friends

The prime birding season is right around the corner as our spring birds return from their warmer climates and the baby birds are being born. Spring is a beautiful time of year for feeding to attract birds to your yard. It’s a beautiful site to see the bright breeding plumage and hear their musical calls to one another. Woodpeckers, Chickadees, and Starlings are common backyard birds that stay year-round. The migratory birds are headed this way as winter moves out; all will be searching for food. 

First Spring Feeding tips and the easiest way to attract the birds to your yard is with a bird feeder. Word will quickly spread throughout the bird community that a food source is available. The Bird Store can help you pick which bird feeder and foods will attract the species you want to feed this spring. Plus, The Bird Store Staff can give you hints about food items that will provide extra nourishment for some remarkable species and offer many more spring feeding tips.

The second Spring Feeding Tip is a clean water source, such as a bird bath or small man-made pond for our traveling friends to wet their beaks. 

The third Spring Feeding Tip is the placement of your feeder and bird bath. Have them in an area with a bush, tree or shrub nearby so the shy birds will feel that no one is watching them.
