WLROOSTBirds need additional energy to make it through the cold nights. They also need to replenish the lost energy when wake up in the morning. We always recommend that you have your feeders full the last couple of daylight hours and at daybreak. This is to help birds endure the long winter nights and fill those empty bellies in the morning. Roost boxes are a big help as small birds will gather on the perches and “huddle up” to stay warm over night. Our Woodlink Roost box is now back in stock.  It can be ordered from our secure website.

Many North American birds nest in “cavities” (holes in trees and fence posts). Although some birds, such as woodpeckers, can chisel their own holes with the heavy, sharp bills, other cabity-nesters must find suitable holes for nesting. Unfortunately suitable nest cavities can be hard to find in much of North America.

One way to solve the nest-site shortage is to provide artificial cavities, also known as Bird Houses or nest boxes. More than 50 species of birds including Bluebirds, Kestrels, Owls, Titmice, Chickadees, Nuthatches, Wrens, Tee Swallows and Woodpickers will use bird houses. Bird houses have helped boost populations of many cavity-nesting bird species whose numbers were declining. For example, both Wood Ducks and Eastern Bluebirds recently have made dramatic comebacks. A Bird House on your property will provide a valuable home for birds and enjoyable bird watching for you. At our website we offer a wide variety of bird houses and bird feeders. These will help you to attract nesting birds. You will enjoy the sites of parents and young birds in your yard.
