Attracting Birds to Your Garden

Birds are usually attracted by the geographical locations and tend to move to the place that resembles to their favorite location. Therefore, you must refer to the specialty magazines and documentations to find out the type of birds in your area and the geographical location those birds like. You can consult books based on the migration and species of birds to find out the details about the species of birds that are found in your area in summers and winters as many birds migrate from one place to another for the same. The best way is to take the photograph of the birds that you see in your surroundings and then find the information about that bird to acknowledge the type of location these birds thrive for.

The best way to attract a large number of birds is to have a source of water, that is, a pond or pool of any size. This would attract many ducks, gooses or birds at your garden.

The next thing the birds look for is food, the second basic necessity for living beings. Therefore, arrange for a place where the adequate food such as bird seeds, bread or any bird food like corn is available easily. Many birds love to eat sun-flower seeds that are easy to find and are inexpensive also. You must look for the needs of each and every type of birds in your area to meet their demands.

By following the above stated methods you can attract the large number of birds in your garden. You must not keep scarecrow or anything like that in the garden as it may scare the birds away from your garden. For example- in many cases the neighbor’s dog is a big threat for the birds and birds usually don’t like to live there where there are dogs.

Remember its not so that every breed of birds would adjust with every other breed, therefore such two breeds must not stay together in your garden. The garden should have a natural look and there should be no noise of children or any such loud noises that may disturb the birds. It’s very important to understand the nature of birds you are inviting to your garden.
