Enjoy the benefits that birds offer, with their beautiful songs, colors and playful activities. We have everything you need to invite the birds to your yard. First provide them with the food they enjoy from Wild Delight. Next, select a bird feeder supplied by Woodlink, that is just as enjoyable to look at as the birds. Here is a list of bird feeding tips from Woodlink:

1. Keep your bird feeder full all year around.
2. Place feeders in a native landscape that has a healthy supply of trees and shrubs… the birds will feed more often and stay longer.
3. Birds are more likely to frequent your feeding stations that always have a consistent supply of water.
4. Use natural foods in the winter months.
5. Locate feeders at different levels to avoid over crowding and attract the greatest variety of species.
6. Attract more birds by providing a variety of different feeders.

Have you ever had the opportunity to watch a bird take a bath? They are so cute, working hard to splash their bodies with water from a shallow pool. We have nice ceramic bird baths provided by the local artist, Brad Henry so you can make this opportunity happen more often. Here in the high dessert, water supplies are scarce for the birds so providing them with fresh water year round is very important.

After the birds are all fat, happy and clean, give them a place they can call home. We have handmade, cedar bird houses provided by a local craftsman. With his unique design you will find this bird house to be hassle free. He has made them so cleaning is a cinch.
