Attract More Bird Species and Enhance Your Own Mental Health

If you've been feeding the birds for a while, you might think you've got it all figured out. But what if you could take your hobby to new heights - not just for better birdwatching but for enhancing your mental health, too? Recent studies link seeing a greater diversity in bird species to boosts in a person's mental well-being. Basically, you see more, different birds; you feel better - it's a win, win!

This is your opportunity to transform from a casual feeder to a bird feeding enthusiast. With the right food, feeders and water sources strategically spread about your yard, you can enjoy a bird feeding experience that gives back, season after season.

Consider using these to enhance your yard:

  • Tray Feeders: These are a hit among our feathered friends for their ease of access and unobstructed views, making them perfect for your relaxation and birdwatching.
  • Hopper Feeders: Ideal for attracting a diverse crowd with their ample landing spots and ability to hold a hearty mix of seeds.
  • Tube Feeders: Great for a tidy feeding experience, these keep the seeds safe from the elements and allow multiple birds to dine simultaneously.
  • Suet Feeders: Essential for providing high-energy fat, these attract a variety of birds, from woodpeckers to warblers, especially those partial to insects.
  • Finch Feeders: Designed specifically for finches, these feeders use Nyjer®️ to draw in these beautiful birds year-round.
  • Nectar Feeders: For the dazzling hummingbirds and orioles, choose feeders that are easy to clean and fill, offering you superb viewing opportunities.
  • Water Features: No backyard habitat is complete without water. From simple bird baths to elaborate recirculating systems, water features keep birds coming back and enhance the natural appeal of your space.

Your efforts will not only lift your mood but also will support the health and diversity of our local bird population. Visit us soon to learn more about the benefits of diversifying your bird food and feeders.
