Show 10D December FOCUS 16, 1981 Faith Baptist Church Wildlife Notes Meeting at 2349 Doc Holiday Drive Park City, Utah 84060 649-114- 7 Holy Bible December is the ideal time for Utahns to start a winter backyard bird feeding program. As the snow be; ins to fly and temperatures drop, natural food supplies dimin-- . ish and many birds have a hard time finding enough food to maintain normal body temperatures, vital to their survival. Artificial bird feeding is an excellent supplement for natural food sources and will help eliminate hardships on birds through the winter. Bob Walters, Utah Wildlife Resources Nongame biologist. says. "It is important to maintain a continuous winter feeding program because the birds come to depend partially on this food source. However, even during severe weather, birds are quite resourceful and not completely dependent on feeders. Bird feeding is largely unnecessary at other times of the year, because natural food supplies are usually plentiful. Walters also mentions that there is danger in starting a winter feeding program too early because migratory birds may stay at the bird feeder instead of going south. Several different types of bird feeders stocked with various foods may attract a wide variety of birds, grouse, quail, larks and many other songbirds may frequent ground feeders. Tabletop or window feeders are ideal for feeding chickadees. waxwings, grosbeaks and finches. Hanging or high post feeders may attract titmice, chickadees, nuthatches, finches and redpolls. Flickers, woodpeckers, sap- - suckers, creepers and kinglets will prefer trunk feeders. These arc only a few species which may appear at an outdoor bird feeder. Sunflower seeds and several types of millet will attract the widest variety of birds to a backyard feeder. Other attractive seeds are fine cracked corn, thistle, hemp and rape (a mustard-typ- e seed). Cracked nuts, fruit, suet and bird cakes are also suitable for backyard bird feeders. King James Version Walter adds. Grit, salt and water arc required, by birds throughout the year and should be available at backyard feeding stations. Fine gravel, egg shells, fireplace ashes and coarse sand may all be used as 1611 A.D. 10:00 a.m. Sunday School 11:00 a.m. Morning Service 6:00 p.m. Evening Service Wed.
