Water is an important aspect of habitat for birds, just like the creek that this female Mallard is enjoying in the picture about. Year round, birds need access to safe water, and plenty of it. In the Winter, that gets a little bit harder, especially in New York!

The good news is, we can help you, help the birds! Plus, providing water in your backyard bird habitat will help attract more of them to your backyard.

A heated waterer is a great solution for you and your birds!

We offer this one. Don't forget the Birdbath Stand, and it is decorative, too!

You can read more about the importance of water for the birds in Winter here. Don't forget to check out November's Nature Centered Podcast for more information about reliable water sources, and more!

This one is a favorite! Afterall, it's part of why you're building a good habitat for them by taking steps like providing a reliable water source through the Winter. Birdwatching right from your backyard is a special treat.

You probably have already experienced that birdwatching can be entertaining, relaxing, and a great conversation starter! Did you also know that it can help support science? Project FeederWatch lets you just do that, from the comfort of your own home, or your Winter adventures to Nature Centers. You can learn more information here. 

What do you need to participate? A good habitat, including water and food sources, a tally of the birds you see, and an internet connection to upload your data.

Bird watching, and data collection, is a great opportunity for people of all skill levels and backgrounds. It's great for children, and children-at-heart, too!

Nov 21-23, when you buy a Peanut Hut Feeder, we are providing the peanuts for Daily Savings Club members. Get a free 5lb bag of peanuts with your purchase. This is a great opportunity to help boost your habitat for birdwatching. Peanuts attract birds like Woodpeckers, Nuthatches, Blue Jays and more! Don't forget, they might even cache them to help with their winter supply.
