Along with the feeders, don't forget to add a source of water. A birdbath
or small pond is great, but even a small bowl that you keep filled with
fresh water will attract a lot of birds. The larger birds and ground
feeders, robins and doves and such, visit my pond, but I keep a dog bowl
filled up on my deck, and get a lot of songbirds there.

Shrubs that provide cover, and berries for food, are a good investment, and
birdhouses also are a good idea.

hello. if i was to buy a few bird feeders and hang them up. will it
attract birds that will eventually make nests in the trees? is there any
particular bird that eat flying insects like mosquitos and gnats and perhaps
small spiders? if so what type of bird and what food would i need to add to
the feeder to attract them?

thank
