Cupid isn’t the only winged object that people need to watch out for this month. In 1994, the United States Congress proclaimed February to be National Bird Feeding Month. Backyard bird feeding is enjoyed by over 41 million North Americans. And while February is National Wild Bird Feeding Month, with the right provisions, people can enjoy a wide variety of backyard birds all year long.

Get involved this month by doing the following:

• Participate in the Great Backyard Bird Count

• Add another feeder to your yard

• Add water to your yard

• Get a friend into birding

Enjoy the birds!
