- Modern Hummingbird Feeders, History And Choosing One For Today
By: Steve Peek | - Important diet supplement
Hummingbird feeders dispense liquid, not seeds. The mainstay of a hummingbirds diet is made up of insects and spiders. The liquid in your feeder is more like emergency rations to your birds. During a typical day a hummingbird will collect nectar from about 100 different flowers. They avoid flowers with nectar containing less than 25% sugar.
History of hummingbird feeders
No one knows for certain how long people have b ...

- All About Humming Bird Feeders
By: Mayoor Patel | - Unlike many of the birds you may try to attract with feeders in your garden the hummingbird is not one to share. This is because they are one bird that is protective of its own territory and will not readily share a food source with other hummingbirds. That means if this is the bird you want to attract you will need to put several humming bird feeders around your garden. Hummingbirds are very accepting of where their feeders are located so you can put them in many locations. They can be outside ...

- April Birdies
By: Jean Woods | - They're here, they're here. Finally, well it seems like forever, some of my migrating feathered friends have returned to their favorite bird feeders, at least to my favorite bird feeders. The youngest pair of evening grosbeaks were the first to return. I find this interesting because they were the last to leave by several weeks. They brought a friend whom I have never seen before, a variegated thrush. A few days later the rest of the grosbeak flock landed. They are still some of my favorite ...

- Is Spring Here?
By: Jean Woods | - Well it's spring, in some parts of the country anyway, around here winter is truly just beginning. Last week my robin returned, only to be buried in 4 feet of snow. The poor thing. I have a wooden bird feeder on a pole and it literally had three feet of snow on its roof. This robin always seems to bring the first major snow storm of the New Year. He doesn't like the birdhouses but he will eat at the platform birdfeeder. I haven't seen him since the storm, but I am fairly sure he is still a ...

- January Birdies
By: Jean Woods | - Wow! It seems that our friends in Canada decided we had it much too easy and they sent us some of their cold weather via the Alberta Clipper, okay you can stop now. For those of you in Minnesota you know what I mean, but believe me for those in California, even in the Sierra's it just rarely ever gets this cold. Does anyone make a fully insulated bird house with forced air heat? I am sure my friends could use one right about now.
The bird population is still low around here, so ...

- The Bears Have Finally Gone To Bed!
By: Jean Woods | - Well the bears have finally gone to bed, and I hope the raccoons, I don't exactly know what they do for the winter, seems they go away for awhile. The squirrels and the bunnies are still rooting around but not for long. There is too much snow for them to go food hunting. So they will go to bed soon. It's time to put out my pretty new wooden bird feeders that I found under the Christmas tree.
I generally feed a song bird mix that has bits of dried fruit and nuts as well as a var ...

- Where Have The Birds Gone?
By: Jean Woods | - Oh my goodness, after all my begging for new decorative birdhouses I need to take the Christmas Tree outside and plant it in the snow fully stocked with some of the most beautiful housing for my garden residents and visitors. The only problem is all my birds have disappeared and I don't know where they went. I have filled the ornamental birdfeeders with the most tempting bird food. They stay full, no one visits, and it's so lonely.
I can hear them though, rather distant, talking t ...

- Oh My Goodness Here It Is.....
By: Jean Woods | - Oh my goodness here it is, the holiday season arrives, Christmas is just around the corner and I'm so glad I'm not a turkey! The raccoons have been in the garden, we have renamed them the terrorists. I have no surviving birdhouses or birdfeeders left, luckily there is still so much natural food around no one is going hungry.
There is actually a good side to the loss of all my wonderful decorative birdfeeders, I get to get new ones, how fun! Not only that, but when friends ask wh ...

- Fall Birdies
By: Jean Woods | - Wow, it's gotten cold around here in a hurry. Maybe the grosbeaks had it right. The whole flock left about a month early. All of a sudden the wooden bird feeders still have food in them by the time the sun goes down and there are no bright yellow clowns in my garden fountain, I am so sad. I miss their silliness. For some reason, they left behind one single pair of fledglings born this year. I have no idea why. They looked lonely sitting on one of the ornamental bird feeders. They stayed for an ...

- Should You Feed Wild Birds In The Winter?
By: Janet Winter | - Winter weather will soon be here in many parts of the country, yet many of us enjoy our wild birds year-round. Should you continue feeding them in winter? What should you feed them, and how should you go about it?
The "conventional wisdom" has always been that you should feed wild birds in winter because their normal source of food - small seeds and insects - has dramatically diminished. But is the conventional wisdom correct? By attracting birds to our feeders, are we makin ...

- We're Flying!
By: Jean Woods | - This is the fourth summer that the same flock of grosbeaks has visited my yard. They don't move into the decorative bird houses because they live 200ft up in the pine trees and I don't have a ladder that tall. They do however, come several times daily (read constantly) to feed at the wooden birdfeeders and to drink and swim in the garden birdbath fountain. This little flock was about 22 strong when they came back this spring, I am guessing we have more than 40 now. There about 12 individual fled ...

- Danger In The Garden
By: Jean Woods | - I love my summer visitors to all the decorative birdhouses I have in the yard. The winter and year round residents don't seem to nest in the bird houses too much but rather in the trees. They do however, come down to the wooden bird feeders and garden birdbath fountain I keep ready for them. I find every one has their own personality with some being braver than others. The chickadees seem to be the first line of defense, they have a very specific warning call. If I am in the house and I hear it ...

- Solitary Robin
By: Jean Woods | - I seem to have one, solitary, lone robin. He never did move into any of the birdhouses. Poor thing, I keep expecting him to bring his wife round for a visit but I haven't seen one yet. When he arrived in April he came alone and I expected his wife to come in a week or two. We had a horrible snowstorm the week he arrived and I have a picture of him fluffed up and grumpy on one of the garden birdbath fountains. But for some reason he seems to be all alone still. He doesn't socialize much with the ...

- Fledglings
By: Jean Woods | - The birds who live in my decorative birdhouses are glad that horrible hot streak has cooled down, I know I am. It is fledgling season around here. This might be my favorite part of the summer. The garden birdbath fountain is full of colorful babies just learning how to swim and fly. I find it interesting that they seem to be larger than their parents.
The baby Stellar's Jays are hysterical at the bird house feeders and they keep falling into the water fountain. For some reason the ...

- The Chickadees Rental War
By: Jean Woods | - After a long snowy winter as I get to work in the garden I discovered the need to completely redo the birdbaths, bird houses and other bird friendly aspects of my garden. Rain, snow and ice did major damage to the pond, the birdbath fountain, the decorative bird houses and all the bird feeders. Wow! I didnt have this much maintenance on my own house. Of course the bears took out their spring energy on the decorative bird feeders and the raccoons keep hanging off the more unique bird feeder be ...

- Hummingbird Feeders: Sheltering Nature's Lovely Creatures
By: Robert Thatcher | - Even before manufacturers took advantage of the growing popularity of feeding hummingbirds, the first hummingbird feeders were typically constructed out of laboratory apparatuses. These were constructed primarily to attract the birds that would normally fly around a garden. To these, the response of the manufacturers is to market and create sugar-water feeders. Many of which are uniquely created thus giving logic to the high cost of each feeder. But most are mass-produced to provide such equipme ...

- The National Geographic Birdfeeders Offer Great Variety To The Backyard Bird Watcher
By: Stephanie Hetu | - The nice thing about National Geographic birdfeeders is that you can be assured that they come with great provenance. Sure, you can walk into any local pet store and find bird feeders of all sorts. But do they work well--have they been vetted--that is the question.
With National Geographic birdfeeders the variety is wonderful and the workmanship well worth the shipping cost, which one must consider when ordering off the internet. For instance, you can find feeders with a sturdy wi ...
