From the simplest backyards to the most complex gardens, any landscape can be made more beautiful by the presence of birds. Birdbaths and feeders are readily available at all garden centers and can put you on the road to identifying birds you never knew were around. Attracting an assortment of colorful birds to your lawn is an effortless project the whole family can enjoy.
Bird feeders are great educational projects for children.
They open a whole new world by giving children the responsibility for choosing the location and maintaining a feeder. Armed with a bird guide or encyclopedia, your child will be identifying the feasting birds in your yard in no time. Birds that feed during the spring and summer will come to rely on feeders during the fall and winter months, too. Birds need more than just food. Birdbaths will supply water for drinking and bathing.
