Nature Centered from Wild Birds Unlimited

Some people choose to not feed in the summer, but what are they missing? A whole lot it turns out. John and Brian make a case for helping your birds by providing key supplemental nutrition, as well as attracting more birds and seeing behaviors you’d otherwise miss. 

John and Brian discuss the best bird mom ever. Hummingbird moms are arguably some of the toughest ladies out there. With all the odds stacked against them, we should celebrate how hummingbird moms are champions this Mother’s Day.

Habitat, habitat, habitat! That’s right, there’s more to learn about our own little natural parks we call our backyards. John and Brian share exciting new research on just how much of an impact an individual can make for local wildlife. Hint: it’s a lot! Stay tuned until the end to find out if we could see the dodo again in our lifetimes.

Spring is almost here, and you know what that means! New feathered visitors will be arriving soon. Do you have the right foods and features to bring in the most variety of these spectacular spring species? Don't worry, John and Brian are here to tell you about some of the easiest and best ways to get your yard ready so you and your birds can enjoy each other's company all season long. 

What really happens at the feeder? Brian sits down with award-winning wildlife photographers and filmmakers Tim & Russell Laman to talk about Backyard Birds Revealed, a WBU-sponsored video series that captures common backyard birds in super slow motion, extreme close-ups, and unorthodox camera angles to uncover the details of backyard birds we wouldn’t otherwise see.
