Tips for Backyard Birders
Providing food and water year-round
Birds will frequent your feeders more if you
provide a consistent, reliable source of feed. Our
complete line of premium mixes offers a variety of
high-quality seed to attract birds to your backyard.
Setting out a bird bath and providing clean,
fresh water will also attract birds not normally drawn
to feeders.
Both bird feeders and bird baths should be cleaned
periodically and the food supply kept fresh to
provide a healthy feeding environment.
Feeder location
Select a feeder and location appropriate for the
birds you would like to attract. Place feeders
in a quiet place where they are easy to see and
convenient to refill. Ideally, it is best to put them
close to natural shelter, such as trees or shrubs,
which offer resting places for birds between feedings
and a quick escape from predators.
