A Home for Wild Birds

My Favorite Backyard Birds

I have several wild birds that I consider my favorites. What is yours?



I have had a Tufted Titmouse pair build a nest in my yard each of the last few years. The kids and I watch in anticipation for their arrival in early April. Last year we had two pairs nesting. It is nice to know that they have chosen our home to be their home.

If you are new to birding, you will soon begin to recognize certain birds that come around each day. You will become familiar with which wild bird foods they prefer, how they interact with the other birds, the times that they arrive and so on. Soon you will have your own favorite birds.



According to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife service, more than 50 million people in America consider themselves to be birdwatchers. Some bird watchers may never venture beyond their own backyards, while others will travel to other parts of the world to observe wild birds.

There are about 800 species of birds in North America. You could probably find about 100 species near and around where you live. Your backyard is a great place to start enjoying the incredible hobby of bird watching.



The list below includes the birds that I have in and around my yard in New Hampshire. There are many ways to attract wild birds into your yard. Use the links below to find even more information on how to attract birds into your yard.
