Let Nature Be Your Stress Reliever
As an avid lover of birds, butterflies, flowers and gardens, you will often hear me us the phrase” Nature is God’s stress reliever”. In these tough economic times, many of need to get away – refresh- recharge! There isn’t a more cost effective way of recharging and relaxing than to take walk into nature, to observe, to watch and hear the beautiful songs of the birds, and lose yourself in the splendor of all of the sights and sounds that Mother Nature has to offer.
Watch a Chickadee pick just the right seed off of the feeder, then fly off to enjoy his snack. I am particularly fond of the Woodpeckers and the drumming sounds that provide a “rhythm section” for the sounds.
Now that the leaves have almost all tumbled to the ground, the squirrels are more visible and daring as they stock up on food for the cold days ahead. Now I know there are some of you who think they are pests. Well, there are times that I agree, and other times I don’t. That’s why Bird Essentials provides options to love them and feed them, or help to keep them at bay. Did you know that squirrels try to fool other squirrels and small animals that might eat their “stashed morsels?” They fake us and potential other robbers with a slight of hand trick. The squirrels appear to be burying a seed or nut, when actually the hole, covered up, is empty. It’s been proven that potential robbers give up after taking time to excavate “empty stashes”. You can find out how to keep hem at bay or enjoy the frivolity of their antics by feeding them by going HERE.
As I have stressed in previous articles, by providing food and water sources to wild life during the fall and winter months, you will have an endless flurry of activity. Enjoy the stress relieving joys of bird feeding and watching.
Sit back, enjoy the show! It’s an inexpensive way to relax and forget the stress of the day. Stop by Bird Essentials and we will introduce you to all of the products you need to do that for less.
