We're All About Birds, for All Seasons

To keep birds coming to your feeders all year 'round, you'll want to make sure you have the basics covered 12 months of the year: food, water, and nesting areas.  Our Calendar section will help remind you of what to do each month and what to watch for as the seasons fade from one to another.

For a great seasonal timeline, or phenology, visit our writings section and read Naturalist Jim Gilbert's seasonal recordings of the prior year.  Will your bluebirds be back at the exact same time this year?  What about your house wrens or orioles?  Keep your own log and compare it to Jim's!

The calendar is cyclical, so it always has the past calendar year loaded, with the current month being the first month of the new cycle.  We traditionally repeat many of our more popular events such as our annual Eagle Tour and our Trumpeter Swan Tour. 

We hope this helps you enjoy your backyard birds even more!
