Good Morning. Google Entry # 2168. .

My thought have been on my WILDLIFE HABITIT for the past few days. I have enjoyed it so much. In this extreme hot weather it is a pleasure to sit in my officc and watch those birds enjoy the two bird baths that I have for them.
.
If you do not have a Wildlife Hibatit I would hope that you would consider planning one. It will be a little cost and labor spent, but you will say that is is well worth it and more.

With the heat of the summer in full swing, you know there’s nothing quite as refreshing as a cold glass of water or a dip in the pool, lake or ocean. But what would you do if you were a hot, thirsty bird and couldn’t find that relief? Since normally abundant water sources can begin to dry up in the sun and heat, some of our feathered friends find themselves desperate to find a cool haven.You can help provide a refreshing oasis for wildlife thisseason simply by creating a National Wildlife FederationAdvanced “Bird-Friendly” Certified Wildlife Habitat™ site!Whether it’s a place for them to clean their feathers or a stopover to refuel with a quick drink, all birds need water year-round. And they’re relying on you to help! Simply providing a water source in your backyard is one of the best ways to care for and attract local birds, from hummingbirds to songbirds — even some waterfowl! Here are a few helpful hints for turning your yard into a haven for wildlife this summer.Provide a bird bath on a pedestal or a shallow dish at ground level to attract birds of all types and sizes.Stack rocks in your bird bath to create landing places so tiny hummingbirds can bathe.Clean and refill your bird bath or water dish every few days to prevent your water source from becoming a breeding habitat for mosquitoes.Create a pond, if space permits, to provide habitat for wading birds, ducks and other waterfowl. After providing a water source and other essentials for the birds in your neighborhood, don’t forget to designate your garden as an Advanced “Bird-Friendly” Certified Wildlife Habitat™ site. You’ll not only experience wildlife in your own yard, but for your $35 application fee, you’ll receive many other benefits too (see sidebar to right)! Get started today! .Sincerely,

May you always have work for your hands to do.May your pockets hold always a coin or two.May the sun shine bright on your windowpane. May the rainbow be certain to follow each rain.May the hand of a friend always be near you.And may God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.-- Blessings
