by Klondike Kid Building Nest Boxes For Alaska's Bug Eating Swallows Swallows are an enjoyable species of wildlife to have around the yard. In addition to their entertaining acrobatics they are wonderful bug eaters, especially for mosquitos here in Alaska. The Violet Green swallow and tree swallow migrate to southcentral Alaska around May 1st. In the wild they chose to nest in abandoned woodpecker nest sites but these are relatively rare and so the birds will take up residence in ...

In particular, now is the time to start building a bird nesting box so that when the spring does arrive, your local birds have a nice new home. By putting the box out in the winter, any human-related smells (such as the smell of the varnish) will have merged nicely into the more expected aroma of nature ...

Over one million North Americans put up housing for Purple Martins. Unfortunately, many of these folks are unable to attract breeding martins. The advice given here will increase your chances of attracting martins. Once martins nest at your location, they will come back every year if you manage the site properly. Landlords who lose their entire colony from one year to the next often suspect their 'flock' died in a storm during migration or was poisoned by pesticides on their wintering grounds. ...

DINNER? IT'S FOR THE BIRDS! Hi! We have talked a bit about bird houses. Now let's look at what we can do to help provide the birds with food. Bird feeding isn't just a winter activity; it might surprise you to learn that even in spring, food is still scarce for our feathered friends. The temperatures are usually cool enough that many insect populations haven't emerged, and that's sad news for those birds who eat insects. Also, the fruit eating birds won't see their favorite foods ...

You know what the barred owl sounds like from OwlCam, and can learn the screech and barn owl's calls at t ...

DIRECTIONS FOR BUILDING BIRD AND SQUIRREL HOUSES My husband Phil began building squirrel houses last spring and hanging them from tall trees--one house to each half acre. Within hours of hanging the houses, however, he found starlings-- rather than squirrels-- moving into his "squirrel houses." Because of the popularity of these houses with the birds, Phil decided to build some nesting boxes for birds. However, he wanted the boxes to be the most desirab ...

[ Plans for bird houses, or nest boxes.] Build a Bird House Many species of birds require a hole in a tree, known as a "tree cavity," in order to build a nest and raise young. Birds such as bluebirds, owls, woodpeckers, and chickadees cannot build a nest unless they find the right size cavity and entrance hole. Since people don't like to leave dead trees standing, cavities for nests are not as plentiful as they once were. We can help our feathered friends by building and maintaining homes for ...
