🐦 Birds need our help, and your backyard is a great place to start. 🌿

Scientists have documented major declines in bird populations over the past several decades, with nearly 3 billion birds lost since 1970. 📉 But everyday people can help make a difference. 💙

Project FeederWatch invites participants across the U.S. and Canada to count the birds they see at feeders or nearby viewing spots from November through April. These observations help researchers track bird populations and winter trends. 📊

🌟 Wild Birds Unlimited is proud to sponsor Project FeederWatch, operated by our partners at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and Birds Canada.

Featured Bird: House Finch and Downy Woodpecker
Featured Food: No-Mess Seed Blend

Many backyard birds are clever food hiders, or “cachers,” storing seeds, nuts and even insects in tree crevices, under bark or in the ground to eat later! 🌳🥜 These smart birds use landmarks, the sun and even each other to keep track of their stashes, helping them survive tough winters and busy seasons. ❄️☀️ Watching them work is like seeing a tiny treasure hunt happen in your backyard! 🔍✨

The windows in our homes and offices can be hazardous for birds. Birds cannot readily distinguish the presence of a pane of transparent glass from an unobstructed space or passageway and often fly into window panes causing injury or death. Click here to learn more: www.wbu.com/window-strikes

In the Northern Hemisphere, the First Day of Autumn is Tuesday, September 22. That's when the length of day and night are almost the same. Be sure your feeders are ready for some hungry birds that are either preparing or recharging for the longer nights.

The Blue Jay shown is an example of a North American bird working hard to find the additional calories needed to make it through autumn's longer hours of darkness. Which birds are visiting your backyard this season? Share in the comments.
