"Close your eyes, and tap your heels together three times."
That may be the way to get home from the wonderful Land of Oz, but for wild birds looking for a place to raise their families during spring nesting season, things can be a bit more complicated.
You can play a helpful, interactive role during this season by placing nesting materials and birdhouses around your backyard, possibly enticing some of the many cavity nesting birds.
Providing birdhouses can make your birds' lives a little easier. After all, they're expending lots of energy migrating, courting and looking for scarce food.
Most of last year’s natural food sources have been depleted, and the majority of this year’s seeds and berries won’t be available until much later.
The best seeds for providing high energy levels are black oil sunflower, striped sunflower and safflower. Suet is also an invaluable high energy food for birds.
As you can see, there are a variety of ways you can help your birds during this trying season.
Visit your local Wild Birds Unlimited Nature Shop this month. They have everything you need this nesting season, including all sorts of birdhouses for a variety of birds and the best birdfood in town.
That way, when birds find your yard, they'll think "there’s no place like home; there’s no place like home; there’s no place like home…."
