Learn how to identify the birds visiting your feeders and get ready for the Great Backyard Bird Count (GBBC) 📊!

Wild Birds Unlimited is a founding and major sponsor of this citizen science event, happening February 14-17.

👀 When you see a bird, make note of its silhouette and markings on its head, body, and wings. Then, enter your observations into the Merlin app 📱 from our partners at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology to identify the birds in your yard.

🔢 During the Great Backyard Bird Count, submit your sightings using eBird, otherwise identifying birds in the Merlin app will add to the count. Learn more at BirdCount.org.

SEVERE WEATHER ALERT!!! Are your feeders ready? Songbirds may use up to 75-80% of their fat reserves for energy during a single winter’s night. The daily challenge is to find enough food to make it through each day and to replace their fat reserves for the coming night -- all in the course of limited daylight hours. You can help by adding a reliable source of high-fat foods such as our exclusive Jim's Birdacious®️ Bark Butter®️ or premium suet products. And don't forget, ALL bird food is ON SALE through the end of February!

✨ Now that the holidays are behind us, it’s a great time to focus on winter well-being. A simple thing to do is feed and watch the birds in your backyard.💚 Engaging with nature has proven mental health benefits, and watching the birds can bring a sense of peace 🕊️ and connection to nature. 🌎

Winter can also be tough for birds, 🥶🐦 since natural food sources are harder to come by, and they need a boost of nutrition to make it through longer hours of darkness.🌙 You can play a vital role in their survival by offering a reliable source of high-energy foods like Jim’s Birdacious® Bark Butter®, Bark Butter Bits, a WBU seed blend, or suet. Also, offer a bird bath to give the birds a place for drinking and bathing💦 (use a heated bird bath if needed for an ice-free water source). 🔥❄️

These acts of caring can be life-sustaining for the birds and can boost your well-being by creating a meaningful connection with nature. 🌟🌳💕

A bird's access to water in winter is extremely important. Clean feathers help birds stay warm, and a bird bath is often the only way to drink and bathe. Research has shown that a chickadee with well-maintained feathers can sustain a 70°F (21°C) layer of insulation between the outside air and its skin. We offer a variety of bird baths and bird bath accessories that will attract more birds to your yard, and help the birds survive winter. Shop now!
