What to Do

 

Maintain the sugar water feeders, cleaning and refreshing them every few days.

Keep the bird baths filled and clean. They will be used more during
July and August than at any other time of the year.

Maintain a niger seed feeder, a sunflower seed feeder, a safflower seed
feeder and a suet feeder for maximum numbers and kinds of backyard birds in
late summer.

Water and feed the bedding plants so they will provide a ready
supply of nectar for hummingbirds.

Take pictures of your garden and habitat for reference next spring
when planting time arrives again.
