Entice more birds in your yard with nesting materials to provide for their basic needs. Hanging birdhouses in your yard is a great way to attract birds, but not all birds are cavity dwellers (use birdhouses). Adding nesting materials to your yard gives you a greater opportunity for better bird watching, attracting more species of wild birds. Nest Balls and nesting wreaths, (with refills available) will help birds to search for suitable materials such as; feathers, string, cotton, hemp and aspen fiber to build their nests. These are some of the nest materials preferred by North American Birds. Nest materials are also used by birds to line roosting boxes in winter.

The Hummer Helper Nesting Kit attracts hummingbirds and has even been endorsed by The Hummingbird Society.  The Birdie Bell can be used year round for feeding fruit in summer, and seed bells in winter months. Most kits are available with the material refills, so you can continue to use the original holder.

As always, adding a bird bath with moving water is also a great way to attract more birds to your yard!
