Bird Feeders for Wild Song Birds!

There is no hobby more enjoyable or rewarding than placing a bird feeder in your yard or garden and watching the variety of wild birds that visit as a result. It's also a great learning activity for children - boys as well as girls, that have an interest in nature. Set them up with a child's field guide for your area (or even an adult's field guide that has photos of every bird) and make a game of it - "How many can you identify at the bird feeder?"

Choosing the Right Feeder

There are a variety of bird feeders on the market today. Choosing the right feeder and the right feed for the wild bird you want is must for your enjoyment of the hobby. This section of the website will introduce you to a variety of bird feeders and the birds that will use each type. 

Bird feeders are year-round entertainment with many added benefits.

  • If you have children the experience can be educational.

  • If you are conservation minded the assistance to birds losing their habitats due to wider reaching cities is fulfilling.

  • If you love interacting with animals the chickadee that learns to trust and lands on your shoulder when you are outside will be heart-warming.

  • And, even if you are plagued by mosquitoes, earwigs or other creepy crawlers, you'll be rewarded by feeding the wild birds in your backyard (they won't just come for feeder treats, they'll help balance the bug population on their visits)!
