Birds You Might See in September

You may spot Red-bellied Woodpeckers, Carolina Wrens, European Starlings, and Great Blue Herons adjusting to seasonal changes.

Preparing Your Yard for Fall

  • Offer high-fat foods – Suet and peanuts provide essential energy.

  • Keep birdbaths clean – Fresh water remains important as temperatures shift.

  • Put up roosting boxes – Birds seek shelter as cooler nights approach.
