Feeding Birds

Food is scarce as the weather turns cold.  What are you going to do about it? There was a Santa Claus on every corner ringing a bell asking for a hand out.  Birds on the hand can't ring a bell.  They need some extra help.  Why not scrape up some money from between the sofa cushions and buy some birdseed to keep our feathered friends fed.  

By attracting birds to your landscape you add an element of life that cannot be duplicated. 

You can attract birds by simply sprinkling some seed on the ground or you can get elaborate by building or purchasing bird condominiums that can run into hundreds of dollars. 

Whichever way you decide to go, make sure the birdseed is fresh and is stored in a cool dry area tightly secured, otherwise, you just might end up feed a family of hungry rats or mice.
