It’s that time of year when baby birds are leaving their nests. Mama continues to feed and care for them, even when they’re on the ground as they learn how to fly. Happy Spring!!! ❤️❤️

Whether you say “LAZZ-u-lye” or “LAZZ-u-lee” or “LA-zoolly”, the LAZULI BUNTINGS ARE BACK! Set millet or a seed mix containing millet in a tray feeder and you have a pretty good chance of attracting them now through mid-July 😊

We’re often asked “HOW CAN I FEED AMERICAN ROBINS? and WHY WON’T THEY COME TO MY FEEDER?” Our friend Rachel Taylor sent a video of a robin recently feasting on DRIED MEALWORMS (available in store, $9.99/bag) she had placed near a GROUND BIRDBATH in her yard. (Zoom in to see it.) Robins aren’t interested in birdseed so they’re unlikely to follow other birds to seed feeders. However, they do love bird baths. By placing the RIGHT KIND OF FOOD (including dried and live mealworms, suet, raisins and other fruit) in the RIGHT LOCATION (near a bird bath), you can have success feeding robins!

Happy Spring folks! Spring means hummingbird season is right around the corner, and early arrivers have already been spotted in Sandy, Herriman, and as far north as Ogden! We're putting our hummingbird feeder out, are you? 🌷🌷🌷

WHAT MAKES A GREAT BIRD BATH?
Generally, birds prefer baths that have two qualities:
1. SHALLOW DEPTH (not more than an inch deep)
2. TEXTURED SURFACES (for grip which aids in quick escapes)
We feature a selection of bird baths in CONCRETE, METAL, NATURAL STONE, CERAMIC and GLASS. Colorful glass and ceramic designs add FUN, INTERESTING CONTRASTS to garden greenery but should be stored away during icy months. Concrete, metal and natural stone bring a SCULPTURED AESTHETIC to gardens. Metal and natural stone offer WORRY-FREE, FOUR-SEASON DURABILITY, and concrete can as long it’s paired with an electric heater to keep ice away. Regardless of the type of bath you choose, providing a source of water not only welcomes a greater variety of birds to your yard but also CONTRIBUTES TO THE HEALTH AND WELLBEING of wild birds in general.
