Bird Attractors

While bird feeders work magic in attracting winged visitors to the landscape, plants provide the structural heart of a bird-lovers garden and can help attract a greater diversity of bird species. Trees, shrubs, and tall grasses provide perches, nest sites, and much-needed shelter from predators and severe weather. Build a bird-watchers paradise by incorporating a variety of plant materials that offer food and shelter all year long.
