Choose native plants that provide food and shelter for birds. Include evergreens for year-round cover. Minimize lawn areas to reduce maintenance.
Install bird feeders and birdbaths to attract birds. Place feeders in safe locations away from predators. Keep birdbaths clean and filled with fresh water.
Create bird-friendly habitats by adding birdhouses and nesting boxes. Position them in quiet areas with good visibility for bird watching. Avoid disturbance during nesting season.
Avoid the use of pesticides and herbicides in your garden. Opt for natural pest control methods to protect birds and their food sources. Embrace a balanced ecosystem.
Mulch garden beds to suppress weeds and retain moisture. Use organic mulch like wood chips or leaves. Mulching reduces the need for frequent watering and weeding.
Maintain a tidy garden by regularly removing debris and fallen leaves. Prune plants as needed to keep the garden neat and healthy. Enjoy the beauty of birds in your low-maintenance winter garden.
