Project Overview
Should you stop feeding wild birds at the first sign of spring? That’s one of the big myths in bird feeding. Truth is, there are fewer natural seeds and fruits available in spring and early summer. These days, an increasing number of Americans are offering food year-round to help birds by supplementing what nature has provided – and to add a little drama and song in their yards as well. Wild bird expert Heidi Hughes will show you how to identify spring birds and provide tips on how to attract them while minimizing backyard bird problems.
