Turn to the Birds

If you are finding things a bit unsettling and stressful lately, just turn to the birds.

Watching and enjoying the birds at your birdfeeders in your own yard can take your mind off all the craziness in our world. Birds can transport us to a calm and peaceful place. They have the power to settle our minds and soothe our souls.

They reduce stress and calm our bodies and minds. They make us happy.

They don't ask for much in return. Just a birdfeeder or two, a source of water, and a little place to hide (in case stress comes into their lives!)

There has perhaps never been a time when the beauty and joy of birds in our yards can mean and do so much for our minds and our bodies.

Refresh your birdfeeders and take the time to relax and turn to the birds right outside your windows.

Enjoy watching all birds in my front & large back yard! - My neighbors have a hummingbird dispenser which is red but not sure if they use red coloring, I hope not but I will make sure to inform them.
A friend mentioned to me yesterday, that if the dispenser is left too long in the sun, it can ferment & turn to alcohol eventually killing them. He said the dispenser should be left in the shaded area in the yard. -I have my doubts if it is just plain water & sugar... Pls. let me know.
Just curious because I may get a dispenser this summer!

Thank you!
