Discover the three factors that will attract many different birds to your garden bird feeder. The way to set-up a bird-friendly habitat in your yard is to provide wild birds shelter, food and water.
Place a garden bird feeder close to trees, shrubs and bushes. Birds require a safe landing place to shield them from their predators. They will need the trees and shrubs in this area to create a sheltered habitat for nesting. The trees and shrubs will also provide the all-important goods for constructing the nests.
The next item to add for the birds that you would like to draw to your garden bird feeder is food. Trees and brush in your garden bird feeder area should be fruit, berry or seed bearing plants. Flowers in the area will furnish a sweet treat and seeds for the birds.
Water is the third vital element that you should give to the birds. A good water source is a bird bath or bird bath fountain in your garden bird feeder habitat.
You will be repaid by observing delightful birds at your garden bird feeder.
