Wild Birds Unlimited

The seasons are changing, and so are the needs of your backyard birds.

Winter Blend is made for the cooler months, with a hearty mix of foods that helps keep your feeders busy as temperatures drop and natural food sources begin to change.

It’s a great time to start transitioning your feeders for the season ahead.

Stop in and grab a bag of Winter Blend for your backyard birds.

Have you spotted a junco yet?

Dark-eyed Juncos are a sure sign that the seasons are changing. These small sparrows spend much of their time feeding on or near the ground, searching for seeds like millet and sunflower.

One of the easiest ways to recognize a junco is when it takes flight. Look for a flash of white along the outer edges of the tail.

As temperatures begin to change, start watching for these seasonal backyard visitors.

Grab a peanut. Fly away. Hide it. Repeat.

Jays, chickadees and nuthatches are known for caching food, storing it in different locations so they can return to it later.

You might see food tucked into tree bark, beneath leaves, or carried completely out of sight.

While you’re stocking your pantry during the Bird Food Sale, your backyard birds might be stocking theirs too.

Sunflower, millet, peanuts, suet, cylinders, blends and more.

Different birds have different favorites, which means there is no one perfect food for every backyard.

During our Bird Food Sale, it’s a great time to stock up on your usual favorites or ask us about something new.

Not sure what to serve? Tell us which birds you want to attract and we can help you find a food that fits.

The windows in our homes and offices can be hazardous for birds. Birds cannot readily distinguish the presence of a pane of transparent glass from an unobstructed space or passageway and often fly into window panes causing injury or death. Click here to learn more: www.wbu.com/window-strikes

In the Northern Hemisphere, the First Day of Autumn is Tuesday, September 22. That's when the length of day and night are almost the same. Be sure your feeders are ready for some hungry birds that are either preparing or recharging for the longer nights.

The Blue Jay shown is an example of a North American bird working hard to find the additional calories needed to make it through autumn's longer hours of darkness. Which birds are visiting your backyard this season? Share in the comments.
