A note from the shelf
Which birds might visit in winter?
Chickadees, cardinals and nuthatches are common Midwestern winter visitors. Sunflower seed is a good starting point for all three. Your yard, the weather and nearby trees affect who turns up; no feeder brings a promised guest.
Can I put a nest box out in December?
You can choose a place and mount it now, but think of it as a spring nesting purchase. For birds to watch this winter, begin with a feeder and seed.
Make a little room for winter.
Include quantities, a pickup day or your travel dates in the request.
