Fruity Delicious
Have you ever wondered how to attract a variety of less common wild birds to your backyard habitat? Offer fruit!
No matter how you serve them whole, sliced or dried you’ll almost surely see birds you haven’t seen before. There are several ways to present fruit offerings. Offer them sliced hanging from a skewer or on a fruit spike feeder. Or just lay them out on some sort of platform feeder, I guarantee the berries or fruit will be found!
**Note** It is important to check your fruit offerings daily for any spoilage, especially during the warmer months. Also, be sure to clean this type of feeders often to minimize any bacteria.
Make sure to also check out the specials at the local grocery, which are available year round. You’ll be amazed by the species, which the berries will attract.
