During the Winter Months, Do Not Forget to Feed the Birds

I live in Southern California but even here, the food for birds becomes scarce during the cold winter months. I try to feed the backyard birds and also the hummingbirds who stay for the winter. Last winter, 2013-2014, when there was only about 10 homeowners in my neighborhood so we did not have many birds but this year we have over 50 homeowners and many birds stuck around for the winter.

I have some bird photos here from the Cornell Bird of Ornithology site.

If  you have never visited this site, you should see what it has to offer if you are interested in birds.

It has live cams of the bird nests (6) different times of the year and it is a great reference site to identify or learn more about a species.

Remember, do not forget to feed the birds in your area during the winter months.

Also, placement of bird feeders is very important as predator birds are hungry too so make sure to shield it from the open spaces...from those hawk or eagle eyes. We have hawks and twice I have seen them in my yard. Once they got a pigeon off the roof and another time they got a mourning dove.
