Helping create bird-friendly backyards

Attracting Birds by Creating a Bird-Friendly Backyard

Birdfeeding.org serves as a helpful guide for people just getting started in the rewarding activity of wild bird feeding and for those who have been feeding their feathered friends for many years.

Here you will find, in an easy-to-understand format, the basic ingredients for developing a successful backyard feeding and habitat program.

For example, you can review information about the most commonly-used varieties of birdseed and how to best match feeders to the birds one hopes to attract to the backyard. You will also find out how, by offering water, particularly if it's dripping or running, you can attract birds that do not visit the feeders.

Feeding backyard songbirds is the most popular wildlife-related recreational activity around the home. The information this site provides will also lead a greater understanding of the integral relationship between human activities, habitat creation and wild bird survival.
