Summer is here—time for sun, sweat, and... stressed-out birds? Help your backyard buddies beat the heat with these easy tips.
1. Keep Feeders Clean (Or Risk a Bird Yelp Review 🚫🐦)
Moldy, sticky feeders = bird fast food gone wrong. Scrub them weekly with mild soap to avoid turning your feeder into a "no-fly zone."
2. Shade is Your Feeder’s BFF ☀️➡️🌴
Birds don’t wear sunscreen. Place feeders near trees or add a tiny umbrella (okay, maybe just a shade roof) to keep seeds from turning into birdie popcorn.
3. Dry Seeds = Happy Beaks 💦🚫
Wet seed clumps like a bad hair day. Use weather-proof feeders or bring seeds in during rain. Pro tip: Avoid the "mystery mush" at the bottom of the feeder.
4. Move Feeders Occasionally (Spoil the Squirrel Conspiracy 🐿️🔍)
Squirrels memorize feeder locations like tiny burglars. Shift spots every few weeks to keep them guessing.
5. Serve Mealworms (It’s Like Bird Caviar 🍽️)
Parent birds are exhausted from feeding screaming chicks. Protein-packed mealworms = their version of a Starbucks run.
6. Leave Baby Birds Alone (No, They’re Not Abandoned 👶🐥)
Fluffy chicks on the ground? Parents are probably nearby. Unless it’s in danger, don’t kidnap—just watch from a distance.
7. Water, Water Everywhere 💧
Birds need baths and drinks! Add a shallow birdbath (change water daily to avoid mosquito raves). Urban wildlife struggles to find clean water. Birds drink and bathe; bees use water to cool hives and feed larvae. Even puddles matter.
Shallow water with stones or sticks offers safe access. Every drop helps in the heat.
8. Suet in the Shade (Or It’s a Greasy Mess 🧈🔥)
Suet melts faster than ice cream in July. Hang it in the shade, or serve no-bake suet dough (yes, that’s a thing).
9. Extra Water Stations = VIP Lounge 🏖️
Add multiple water spots—birds are picky. Some like to splash, others just sip. Think of it as a mini pool party.
Final Feeder PSA:
A cool, clean, and well-stocked feeding station turns your yard into a 5-star bird resort. And remember: If you wouldn’t eat it, neither should they.
Now go forth and be the ultimate bird butler this summer! 🍹🐦
