Garden Bird Watching
Have you ever stopped to look at the birds that may visit your garden? Do you have a bird feeding station in your garden?
Spring is a great time to spot birds as they start to visit your garden more and more. Whether it's looking for a mate or a new food source for hungry chicks back at the nest, Spring is a busy time for birds.
