Humane ways to keep birds out of your pond

By on January 9, 2012

Having a pond in your garden is a great way to attract wildlife but sometimes you can attract the wrong types, and if you have fish in your pond you could be at risk of them being killed and eaten by passing birds and predators. If you have a pond chances are you want to deal with any of these issues in the most humane ways possible.

1 Netting and Chicken wire

It is not the best looking or prettiest option but its one of the ones that works the best. Get some chicken wire or pond wire and use it to cover the top of your pond starting from the edge to about 1-2 ft in, it can also get in the way of the effects of pond lighting> but in time you should be able to remove the wire. The higher you lay your wire they less chance of birds managing to dip through and pinch one of your fish. The larger variety of birds that are capable of eating any of your pond’s fish do not usually like walking on wire. They also can’t easily fish through the wire where it is sticking out over water. If you leave it up long enough, any birds will find new places to get their food from.

Extra tip:You can use netting with a leaf covering to hide the effect of the wire and make the pond look a little nicer.

If you are using wire or netting it is important to make sure you check it regularly to make sure there are no animals or birds that have become trapped in it.

2 Bird Statues
You can get statues of herons, owls and other birds that are meant to deter territorial birds from your pond. It is a good idea to move these around though as birds can wise up to the fact they aren’t real. These work with varied success but it is worth trying out on your own pond.

4. Spray Deterrent
There are spray deterrent’s that work by detecting motion and proximity and will spray a little water on anything that gets too close to your pond. After a while this should deter most predators from your pond. A slightly high tech solution but one that seems to be working well for people who are using this method.

5. Make the pond deeper
Most of the birds and animals that feed from your pond will be reaching in with their paws, mouth or beak. By making the pond deeper you can stop these animals being able to reach your fish even if they are on the edge of your pond.

6. Give fish somewhere to hide
Place something like a cinder block in your pond so that fish have somewhere they can hide in if they see a predator at the waters edge. This can be a great way for your fish to feel safe as well as making sure nothing can get to them.

Using Different Foods to Attract Different Birds

By on January 9, 2012

Your best opportunity for birdwatching, by far, is to feed birds during the winter months. Birds have fewer food options at this time, so they are more likely to visit your feeder, and they will be out in the open, easy to see.

What you might not know is that there are many different types of bird seed that attract different types of birds. The food you put in your bird feeder will influence the types of birds you get to watch, so it’s worth learning what the birds want. Here is a list of ideas for bird food and what types of birds it will attract.

Sunflower seeds

Traditional black oil sunflower seeds are the #1 all-around choice for attracting a variety of birds. Sunflower seeds attract chickadees, nuthatches, finches, cardinals, grosbeaks, sparrows, jays, blackbirds, titmice, and woodpeckers.

Safflower seeds

Safflower seeds are white seeds that are slightly smaller than sunflower seeds. These attract quite a few birds including nuthatches, finches, cardinals, grosbeaks, and titmice. However, they should NOT attract squirrels! It’s hard to believe, but squirrels are supposedly turned off by the bitter taste of these seeds.

(In my experience, squirrels will eat any seed you put out!)

Corn

You might think of corn as deer food, but quite a few birds enjoy this bright yellow grain, too. Corn will attract sparrows and blackbirds, jays, pigeons, doves, and woodpeckers. Even better, you might bring in quail, turkeys, and ducks – they all love corn spread out on the ground.

Millet

Millet is a small, round grain similar to wheat. It will attract finches, buntings, sparrows, blackbirds, pigeons, and doves.

Milo

Milo is what is considered a “filler seed” for birds – it is cheap and contains very little nutritional value. It attracts a few types of birds – jays, pigeons and doves – but mostly goes to waste. We quit buying red milo because it goes mostly uneaten, ending up in piles rotting on the ground. The birds here in the Northeast don’t seem to eat it. Even our chickens rarely eat it!

I would advise you to avoid pre-mixed birdseed, because it’s full of this cheap red milo that won’t get eaten.

Thistle (a.k.a Niger seed)

Thistle, also called nyjer or niger seed, is a tiny, black birdseed from Asia and Africa. If you want to attract finches, this is the best choice. I like to put it out in a tube-style feeder and watch goldfinches swarm around it!

Suet

Suet cakes are mix of bird seed and fat left over from the meat processing industry, making these treats ideal for attracting insect-eating birds, such as chickadees, nuthatches, titmice, jays, and woodpeckers.

There are two things that bring woodpeckers to my yard – rotten apples still hanging in the trees, and suet. So I love to have the suet cakes out there once the weather is cold! (Note: suet is best used in cold temperatures so it doesn’t go rancid.)

Nectar

Nectar is simply sugar water placed in a special feeder that will attract hummingbirds. It is cheap to make, and hummingbirds are tons of fun to watch.

Mealworms and waxworms

A real treat for the birds is live mealworms and/or waxworms that you can get at pet stores. No seeds even compare to real, live food like this! These worms will attract woodpeckers, chickadees, titmice and nuthatches, and blue jays (who will probably bully the other birds when this option is there.)

Grit

Grit, such as sand or ground up egg shells, is an integral part of the birds’ digestion process. Grit will actually attract many birds when put out with other seeds or even just by itself.

You can try any or all of the above options at your house to see which works best for your particular area and birdwatching preferences. You could also try different foods, such as popped popcorn, raisins, pumpkin seeds, peanuts, etc.

Please comment below to share your favorite bird seeds and which birds you get to watch on your feeders!

How to Add Color to Your Outdoor Living Space

By on January 5, 2012

A living space doesn’t have to be confined to the interior of your home–it can extend itself beyond those walls into the beautiful outdoors. An outdoor living space such as a patio, deck, gazebo, or a backyard can be the perfect place to enjoy the fresh air, host a cookout or party, or simply relax while reading a book or basking in the sun. If you love spending time in this special outdoor place of yours, you can make it even more inviting by decorating it just as you would the inside of your home. One of the easiest ways to do this is by bringing in some colorful accents–some of them functional, others merely for decoration. Featured here are some fun and simple ways to spice up your outdoor living space by adding splashes of color.

Flowers and Plants

Planting flowers in your outdoor living area is the perfect way to make the space come alive with color. Flowers, shrubs, trees, and any other type of greenery can be incorporated in a number of ways. Flowerbeds can hold many of your favorite flowers and larger plants, or use pots and baskets to plant pretty blossoms, greens, and small fruit trees. Hanging baskets are another great way to display colorful flowers if you have somewhere to hang them. You can hang them from hooks on the outside of your house or buy large stakes with hooks to hang them from if you would like to place them in and around your yard.

Outdoor Furniture

Chances are you will want to place furniture in your outdoor living space. If you plan on spending a lot of time out there, furniture will contribute comfort in addition to color. Lounging chairs, end tables, patio dining sets, umbrellas, and canopies can add color–just make sure they are designed for outdoor use and can stand up to a variety of weather conditions.

Garden Art

Using garden art to draw in some color is a fun way to really make your outdoor living space unique. Garden art can be found at art fairs, flea markets, farmers markets, garden centers, and at a number of retail chains–and it comes in a variety of forms. Sculptures out of clay, metal, or even recycled materials and junk can make for some colorful decorative pieces, and handcrafted sprinklers, outdoor candles, stained glass, and pottery can, too. If you are on a limited budget, try creating your own garden art. By drilling tiny holes in fragments of a broken mirror, you can space them apart like beads on some fishing line and hang them from trees or hooks in your outdoor living area. When the sun hits them just right, they will reflect the light and create colorful prisms–a gorgeous display that everyone will find delightful. Use your imagination to think of other homemade garden art projects if you want to do-it-yourself and save some money. You might be surprised with what you can come up with.  Anythingbirds.com also has some great Garden Art and artificial topiary if your creative juices aren’t flowing.

Garden Tiles, Rocks, and Shells

Garden tiles can enhance any outdoor space with color–and you can buy them at stores and art fairs or make your own at home. Colored glass, gems, and marbles can be placed in them if you create your own, and you can paint them using outdoor weather-proof paints. Another way to draw in some soft, natural color is to place rocks and shells around your outdoor living area. You can collect them in lots of sizes and colors and put them together in pots or bowls or scatter them around flowers and plants–there’s no right or wrong way to use them when it comes to decorating outside.

Using color to enhance your outdoor living area will not only make it more attractive, it will make it more homey and comfortable as well. There are many easy ways to add color when it comes to decorating your outdoor retreat. Be creative–the possibilities are truly endless when it comes to adding color to your personal outdoor living space.

How to Get a Bird’s Eye View on Your Feathered Friends

By on January 4, 2012

You love watching birds, right? But they never act the same when you get real close, even if you are just looking out the window (yes, they still see you,) and sometimes the best spot for a feeder doesn’t have a good window next to it.

You want to get a good, close up view of the birds fighting for food in their little skirmishes, but it’s difficult. What do you do in this situation?

You set up a video camera that will stream live video into your house so you can watch the birds on your TV or computer! Not only will you be able to watch the birds whenever you please, you will be able to share the view with all with your friends from other places around the globe.

Here is what you need to know to set up your own birdwatching cam:

Start With a Camera

The first item you need is a camera. There are a variety of video cameras out there to choose from, and you can even use a simple web cam if you want. Remember these key points:

1. It needs to be weatherproof.

Since the camera will be mounted outside, it needs to be weatherproof to an extent. Buying a weatherproof camera can be expensive, but for an inexpensive solution, you can make your own weatherproof cover or housing to protect the camera from the elements.

2. It should record video and audio.

If you choose to use a webcam, make sure it has an attached microphone. Not all of them do. If you are looking at trail cams, make sure you get one with video capabilities, because most of them only take pictures.

3. It should include suitable wiring or wireless options.

Since the camera will be outside and your computer inside, you need a way to connect the devices. The camera you choose should either include long cables or be able to connect to your wireless network.

An Example Camera

I am not endorsing any particular camera, but when I was looking at nature cams, the Hawk Eye Nature Cam stood out. This camera costs under $100 and includes a 100′ cable for video and sound. Even better, it is actually small enough to fit inside a birdhouse if you would like to record nesting birds!

Connecting It All Together

These cameras usually come with software so that once you plug everything together, you can run the software on your computer, and the software guides you through the set up process.

Getting the connections right can be a hassle, though. Generally the cameras will have RCA cables that connect easily to your TV, but if you want to connect to your computer, it must have a built-in TV Tuner.

If you are stuck, you probably need an adapter between your camera and computer. One of these will make it simple to connect everything. Popular options include:

  • Pinnacle Dazzle DVD Recorder
  • Hauppauge WinTV HVR-1950

 

You should be able to find both of these devices for under $100, and they may even include software that helps you view and record video on your computer.

Stream Your Video Online

Once you are set up and watching the birds, you will naturally want to share the video with your friends and relatives. The easiest way to do this is to set up live video streaming online.

You can stream video online for free using certain websites. Two popular sites for this are:

 

Once you sign up, they’ll connect to your video input from your computer, and you’ll be broadcasting your birds in no time!

Good luck setting up your own nature cam in your yard! If you already have a camera on your birds, please share your suggestions in the comments below.

Bring Bats To Your Backyard by Guest Author Roger Kelley

By on December 23, 2011

Often the things that we fear the most in nature are things we do not understand.

Take bats, for example. Fossils tell us that they have changed very little since the Eocene era, 50-60 million years ago. As the only known flying mammal they play a critical role in the consumption of flying insects and the pollination of many flowering plants. In the U.S., bats are primarily insectivores. One small brown bat or one hoary bat, the most common species, can consume as many as 2,000 mosquitoes per night and a colony of big brown bats can eat tens of thousands of agricultural pests in one season.

Yet bats are vilified as blind, blood sucking pests who can become tangled in your hair and transmit rabies to humans. You can thank Hollywood and over active campfire imaginations for most of these incorrect and ridiculous assertions.
The facts are that North American bats, while color blind, are not blind. These nocturnal pest control specialists see better than humans at night and are aided by an incredible navigation system. As they fly they emit a series of high pitched clicks that bounce off of objects and are echoed back to their ears. The echoes increase as they approach prey or any object they need to avoid. This echolocation system is so sophisticated and precise that bats can very easily steer around a single strand of human hair.

The idea that bats suck blood is based on three species of vampire bats, none of which live in North America or Europe. They are native to Mexico and areas in Central and South America. And, they prefer cows to humans so even if you are travelling in their habitat you should concern yourself more with enjoying local culture than a bat attack.

The rabies rumors are also rife with inaccuracies. While bats can transmit rabies, as can many animals, there has never been a case of the small brown bat, the most common resident of bat houses, infecting humans. When left alone or handled correctly and only when needed the chance of getting rabies from a bat is no greater then contracting rabies from a skunk. In Austin, Texas, for example, each spring more than 1 million Mexican free-tailed bats living under a bridge form the largest urban bat colony in North America. The bats attract thousands of tourists who hope to see the bats emerge on their nightly hunting trips, yet no case of bat transmitted rabies has ever been recorded in Austin or surrounding counties.

Bats are in fact fascinating silent flyers and key members of a healthy ecosystem. They co-exist with backyard birds, other wildlife, livestock, pets, and people in cities and rural areas and will easily accept a properly installed bat house home during their spring and summer migration into every corner of North America.

Follow these tips when choosing and installing your bat house and next spring you’ll have one of the battiest backyards in the neighborhood:

Size. The Organization for Bat Conservation (OBC) recommends bat houses that are long and wide (see Anything Birds Large Rancho Red Bat House or the Bat House for 45 Bats) as opposed to short, narrow houses. This preference is not well understood but it could simply be that wider houses are easier to see, and, because of the increased surface area, are warmer.

Location. This is a key consideration to attracting bats. Many otherwise useful bat houses are vacant because not enough thought was put into where to hang the bat house. Here are a couple of general rules:

• Trees are for birds, not bats. Hang your bat house on a pole or the side of a building, not in a tree. Bat houses in trees take longer to occupy and often are never used. Why? Bats need to see the house. If it’s hidden by tree branches it is difficult to see and the tree leaves will prevent the sun from warming the house.

• Warm bats are happy bats. The ideal internal temperature for a bat house is 80 – 100 degrees Fahrenheit. The amount of sunlight hitting the house, color of house, and construction materials play a role in maintaining the proper temperature, but the most critical consideration is the direction your bat house faces. In the northeastern and northwestern United States bat houses should face south to allow for maximum exposure to the sun. In the southeast and southwest face the bat house east or southeast. Bat houses should never face north because bats depend on the rising sun to replace the heat lost during the night.

Height and clearance. Bat houses, either attached to a building or a pole, should be 15 – 20 ft. above the ground and should be at least 20 ft. from obstructions such as power lines and tree limbs. If the house is attached to a building it’s a good idea to put a 2×4 spacer between the bat house and the building wall. The spacer protects the building by keeping urine and feces away from it.

Once installed properly bat houses are nearly maintenance free. The only requirement is to take the bat house down during the off season (usually November through February), clean, re-caulk any open cracks, and repaint as needed.

How to Create an Artificial Topiary

By on December 14, 2011

How to Create an Artificial Topiary

If you are looking for some new ways to add beauty and color to your home, you might want to try your hand at creating your own artificial topiaries. Not only does an artificial topiary make the perfect centerpiece for a table, it can be a delightful room accent or even a thoughtful gift for someone special. You don’t have to be a crafty person to make them, either–topiaries are simple to make, and inexpensive, too. Laid out for you here, step by step, are the basic instructions for creating unique artificial topiaries.

Get Inspired

Before you get started, think about what type of topiaries you would like to make. Topiaries are commonly made out of flowers, leaves, and moss–but they can be made out of other things as well. You could use colorful tissue paper, beads, gems, buttons, shells, and anything else pretty or sparkly in your topiaries, as well. Think about what you will be making it for. Is if for a special event such as a wedding, shower, or holiday celebration? Will the topiary be a gift for someone special? Determine what you would like your topiary to look like before you run out to get supplies. That way you’ll know what to look for when you purchase the materials for your project.

Assemble Your Materials

In order to make an artificial topiary, you will need to gather a few materials. Some of them you may already have in your home, others you can pick up at your local craft supply store. For one project you will need a pot, foam craft balls or cones, a dowel,  green paint (or any other color you may want to use), glue, a hot glue gun, artificial flowers and leaves, moss, ribbon, glitter (optional), and any other objects you may want to incorporate into your topiary.

Prep Work

You’ll need a nice, comfortable work area in order to successfully complete your topiary project, so clear off your kitchen or craft table before you get started. Lay out all of your materials in front of you so you can see what you have to work with. If you are going to be decorating your own pot, now is the time to paint it. That way it will be ready to contain your planned work of art. You can also paint your dowel ahead of time. Traditional colors used for the “stem” or “trunk” of topiaries are green or brown, but you can use any color you wish–let you imagination be your guide! Choose the artificial flowers, plants, or leaves you want to incorporate into your topiary and get them ready by separating them and cutting off any stems.

Create Your Topiary

Take one of your craft foam balls and place it in the bottom of the pot you will be using for your topiary. Make sure it fits snugly. If it’s too large you can always cut it down a bit. Place one end of your painted dowel into the foam so that it’s standing upright on its own securely. Cover the foam with moss, using either craft glue or a hot glue gun to secure the moss in place. Next put another foam ball on the other end of the dowel. Make sure that, too, is nice and tight so that it won’t fall off. You can always place a dab of glue on the end of the dowel before pushing it into the foam ball. If you would prefer a cone-shaped topiary, use a foam cone instead of a foam ball for the top piece. Decorate the ball or cone with your selected flowers, plants, and leaves by gluing each item in place with a hot glue gun. Craft glue works fine, too, but it will take longer to dry. Hot glue will affix it within a matter of seconds and will make your project go a little faster. Add any other items you want to use like gems, beads, found objects, or even small life-like craft birds or butterflies. You can use just about anything to make your vision come to life.

Finishing Touches

Once you’ve completed your topiary, you might want to add a few finishing touches. Ribbon can be used to decorate the dowel simply by wrapping it around and tying it in a simple bow at either the top or the bottom of the dowel. A ribbon or bow can also be tied on or around the rim of the pot. If you would like to add some sparkle to your topiary, give it a soft dusting of glitter when you’re finished.

Artificial topiaries make great gifts or wonderful decorations to accent your home with, and you can make them as simple or as extravagant as you’d like. With a little inspiration and a few simple craft supplies, you can make your own topiaries in no time.

If you don’t have the time or creative juices to create your own masterpiece simply buy one of the amazing artificial topiary designs from AnythingBirds.

How to Attract Birds to Your Backyard by Guest Author Casey Lynch

By on December 11, 2011

Bird watching has become a national pastime. People go to great lengths to put themselves in a wilderness-like environment where they may have the opportunity to spot our feathered friends. It doesn’t take much, only a pair of binoculars and the desire to be where birds tend to go. But what if you can’t get away? The next best thing may be to bring the birds to you–to your own backyard. Following are a few tips on how to attract birds to your backyard.

Food

The best way to attract birds to your backyard is to offer them something to eat. Putting food out in a way that birds can approach and feed in relative safety will lure birds to your yard better than almost any other method. In fact, providing them with something to eat on a regular basis will have them coming back–and they’ll more than likely bring a friend or two along for the feast.

Shelter

Wild birds aren’t really much different than people. Basically they need food and shelter in order to survive–their feathers supply their own clothing. While you’re providing food for them, you should also give them a place to seek shelter, not only from the weather, but from predators as well. By planting various forms of trees and bushes you’ll be supplying birds with a place to hide and a way to avoid animals or other birds that may want to feast on them. You could also put out material for birds to use as nesting material and build nesting boxes, too.

Water

Along with food, water is necessary for all living things to have in order to survive. Putting in a birdbath will supply a bird’s need for liquid refreshment and also provide them with a way to cool off in hot weather. Garden pools are also a draw, especially if there is a pump that circulates the water, because the sound of moving water attracts birds.

Diversify the Landscape

Wild birds are used to a variety of trees, bushes, and other forms of vegetation that they use as hiding places while moving from one place to another. Rarely will a wild bird fly directly to their nest, or to a food source, from a great distance. Instead they tend to make intermediate stops checking for predators or other dangers. In order to attract birds to your backyard you should plant a variety of different trees and bushes at varying distances from the feeder in order to give them a variety of landing sites on their way to the feeder and back to the nest. Watching a bird approach a feeder is a lesson in stealth. They zigzag across the yard, varying their direction quite often. They may also perch up high for a few seconds, and then seek the shelter of a branch closer to the ground. Keep in mind that not all birds travel, hide, or feed at the same level–some are ground feeders, while others seek their meals higher off the ground. If you intend to attract birds to your backyard, you’ll have to offer them a diverse landscape.

Attracting Different Varieties of Birds

Not only do different birds perch and eat at varying heights above the ground, they also seek out different types of shelter. Some birds hide in dense bushes, while others opt for pine branches or thick, interlaced hardwood branches. You can attract different varieties of birds by tailoring your backyard in distinct ways. If you like watching the antics of certain types of birds, such as cardinals, you can plant a lot of evergreens, because cardinals tend to use that type of cover. On the other hand, if you prefer watching woodpeckers, hanging a bag of suet should do the trick. Hummingbirds are another type of bird that people like to watch. By mixing sugar with water and putting it in a red container with small holes near the bottom, you’re sure to attract these swiftly moving birds.

Feed Regularly

If you begin feeding the birds, don’t stop. Wild birds sometimes travel a long distance to get from summer to winter feeding grounds, or vice versa. Once they locate a source of food they tend to return there because they believe the food will always be available. If you stop feeding them, they’ll be forced to expend a lot of energy searching for other sources of food.

Corvid Cousins by Roger Kelley

By on December 9, 2011

“When does a crow become a raven?’ my wife’s friend asked as he watched a black bird sort through a discarded bag of ketchup covered french fries near a gas station garbage dumpster. His question amused and perplexed me. While they could be considered cousins, crows could no more become ravens than tigers can become lions.
I did not consider this privileged information and launched into a fascinating explanation on the definition of a species and the differences between the two in question.
Midway through my oratory his expression of interest morphed into information overload speeding towards boredom. In an attempt to avoid a similar fate, and for those who the same question has popped in and out of their heads, here’s the condensed version:
• Crows and ravens are both members of the Corvid genus but they are distinct birds separated by biologists into two species. Crows are Corvus brachyrhynchos, Ravens are Corvus corax.
• Crows are smaller than ravens. Although difficult to distinguish without side by side comparisons, crows are 16-21 inches from head to tail and weigh 11 – 22 oz. Ravens are 18-22 inches from head to tail with a weight range of 24 to a hefty 57 oz.
• Crows’ tails are round or square at the end compared to the wedge-shaped tail of a raven.
• Ravens look more muscular than the ‘dainty’ crow. They have thicker necks, a thick beak, and long, ruffled throat feathers (they look like they just got out of bed and are ready for a fight). Crows have a long neck, no throat feathers, and a long but narrow beak .
• Crows like a crowd. They are often found in large groups while ravens are seen alone or in pairs (unless they are feeding at a large food source such as a landfills).
• Ravens build nests on cliffs, in trees, and under or on various structures such as bridges and power poles. Crows prefer to nest on branches near the trunk of evergreen trees (but almost any tree will do if there are no evergreens).
• Perhaps the easiest way to tell the difference between a raven in a crow is the location. Crows live in most of the United States and Canada. Raven habitat is the western U.S., south to Central America and north to the Canadian Arctic and Alaska.
