As people learn to enjoy the beauty of birds around their home, they
may wish to improve the “habitat” in their yard so that more birds
will visit their property. You can attract birds by placing bird
feeders, nest boxes and bird baths in your yard, and by planting a
variety of trees, shrubs, and flowers. These can provide good nesting
sites, winter shelter, places to hide from predators and natural food
supplies that are available year-round.
