Having bird sanctuary in the backyard
Few tips for bird sanctuary The best way to draw birds into the yard is by enticing them with water. The easiest and least expensive way to provide water for birds is in a birdbath. Make sure that the water is clean and changed frequently. However, the optimal water source for birds is a water fountain with water circulating via an electric pump into several multi-level containers. Make sure that there are sufficient shallow areas too, no more than one or two inches deep. The sound and motion of water is hard for birds to resist and will entice them to drink and bathe. The next thing to consider is shelter and safety. The natural vegetation in the yard will provide protection from predators. One can also offer nesting areas and materials, as well as in some cases food too. Ideally, a backyard bird habitat has a large variety of plants including ground cover, shrubs and trees. This variety of cover will create a comfortable environment for many different species of birds in the backyard. This will give a great pleasure to the children and they can learn the nature too. Other options Another option is to provide a variety of houses for the birds. These are basically substitutes for natural cavities in trees and rocks. Houses range in size from very large, multi-chamber homes, to very small, single-chamber houses too. When choosing a birdhouse, make sure that features include ventilation and drainage holes for the nesting box. There should be removable panel for seasonal cleaning and is constructed of bird friendly materials.
