Find the three factors that will bring a variety of birds to your garden bird feeder. You should provide the wild birds with shelter, food and water.

Position the garden bird feeder next to trees, shrubs and bushes. Birds need a secure landing area to shield them from their predators. They will use the trees and shrubs here to offer a sheltered home for nesting. The trees and shrubs will also provide the needed materials for making the nests.

The second thing to add for the birds that you want to entice to your garden bird feeder is food. Trees and brush in your garden bird feeder area should be fruit, berry or seed producing plants. Flowering plants in the area will supply a sweet treat and seeds for the birds.

Water is the final required item that you should give to the birds. A good water source is a bird bath or bird bath fountain in your garden bird feeder area.

You will be rewarded by viewing lovely birds at your garden bird feeder.
