Did you know that there are at least 19 different species of owls? and that the smallest has a wing span of approximately 12 1/2 inches while the largest is approximately 69 inches? Wow. They really are fascinating.

WOOD WHITE GAZEBO BIRDFEEDER


Have you ever really thought about the birds? Where they find their food? With all the developement of our natural areas many species of birds and animals are losing their food and source of shelter.
You can help them by placing birdfeeders throughout your yard and providing them with some nourishment as they travel throughout your area.

Ceramic Garden Decorative Birdhouse


Who could resist moving into this quaint birdhouse.
It is so cute you may not want to put it outside for the birds. In that case it would be great to use as home decor.

PANORAMIC IN-HOUSE WINDOW FEEDER


Boy is it cold outside. Many of our featured friends fly south for the winter. Yet some do stay behind. Food is often scarce in the winter. Why not give them a little help? A birdfeeder placed stategicly would be wonderful for them.
We have always enjoyed watching the birds while they eat, bathe and play. It is so relaxing.

COUNTRY CHARMER BIRDHOUSE


With the nation growing and building as it has more natural habitat for the birds is diminishing. It gets harder and harder for the birds to find shelter and food.
Have you ever thought about putting up birdhouses or birdfeeders? There are many available. Some that are available are decorative, wood, metal, natural. Some are charming, whimsical and fun. But all will provide shelter for the little travelers.

Bird Houses


Our backyard is a sanctuary. For us and for our feathered friends. We love to watch the birds eat, bathe and play as well as listen to them sing.
Providing the birds with a place to nest or rest is one way to help bring the birds to your backyard. You can make it fun for your family by choosing bird houses that go with your decor.

Garden of Eden


While reflecting in our little "Garden of Eden" I see a Noah's Ark Birdhouse and think about the days of long ago. The supposed simplier life. We often think how difficult it must have been....having to gather seeds, berries and nuts. You couldn't just walk into a store a buy what you wanted. How simple is that?
Yet the little birds that visit us do have such a life. They have come to expect that we will take care of them by providing shelter, a bite to eat and a place to rest.
