Birdfeeders In Your Garden

Writen by Lisa Tinder

Birdfeeders are not only a great yard decoration, they help keep our feathered friends fed. The birds, of course, will be grateful for your largess. In return, they will reward you with cheerful melodies and hours of delightful antics. Your garden benefits, too, because birds eat harmful insects.

Birdfeeders and birdhouses offer designers and craftsmen free rein, which they enjoy to the maximum. There are all sorts of designs: fanciful and traditional, elegant and rustic. Invite your feathered friends to visit your yard in a gracious white Victorian gazebo birdhouse, with or without stained glass panels. Or they may prefer to drop by the birdie diner, complete with red-checked tablecloths! Lighthouse styles are perfect for creating a seaside atmosphere, while the pagoda style complements a garden designed for Zen serenity.

Classic Motifs for Birdfeeders
Statuary-style birdfeeders are classic and elegant, and there is a wonderful assortment available. St. Francis of Assisi holds out treats, and there are angel and cherub feeders in both wall and free-standing models. A country girl and a fairy are lovely options, too, as are the feeders with celestial themes.

Usually hummingbird birdfeeders are so named because hummingbirds are used as a design element. They are not designed as feeders for hummingbirds, which require a liquid that is accessed by a narrow tube or opening. Complement your yard and garden with a unique birdhouse or birdfeeder.
