The Kind of Care a Baby Bird Needs
Hummingbirds on the Tube
Our Calcium Care® Suet Dough helps birds lay strong eggs.
It attracts woodpeckers, titmice, chickadees, nuthatches
and more. Calcium Care is a high-energy food that birds
devour, especially when natural food sources like bugs and
berries aren't plentiful. It's also a no-melt dough that is
beneficial to use as springtime warms up.
These cute window feeders have become one of the most
popular hummingbird feeders at WBU. Coiled copper holds
two glass tubes in place while the red marbles and caps
help attract the hummingbirds.
Birds love the freshness of the nectar; you'll love seeing the
hummingbirds up close. Let us make up a gift pack for you
including extra tubes, cleaner brush, and nectar.

Lots of Birds Eat Mealworms
St.Francis to Watch over your Garden
Not only a bluebird favorite, mealworms satisfy other
insect-eating birds like orioles, titmice, and chickadees.
And when they're offered during nesting season, you'll be
able to see birds feed mealworms to their young.
Serve them in an APS® Sidedish, WBU Dinner Bell or
Supper Dome, or in one of our other mealworm feeders.
Mealworms make a great addition to your birdfeeding
menu.
With a deer in his arms, and birds, squirrels and other
friends of the forest scampering playfully at his feet, St.
Francis lends peaceful serenity to your home or garden
sanctuary. The patron saint of animals and the
environment, St. Francis is an ideal symbol for your
backyard refuge.

Anyone who has seen one knows hummingbirds are truly amazing.
They weigh only as much as a penny, yet
their return to our area from their winter
home included an overnight flight over
the Gulf of Mexico!
They hold the record for having the
fastest metabolism of any animal on the
planet. Unbelievably, they burn 1 to 3
times their body weight in food every
day. Now that's a weight-loss regimen.
Hummingbirds' bills and tongues have
evolved into incredibly efficient feeding
tools. Despite popular belief,
hummingbirds do not suck up nectar with
their bills; rather, they actually lap it up
with their tongues.
and nectar and she'll be all ready to go.
We'll even gift wrap it all for you!
Stop by this month and we'll not only
share more fun hummingbird facts, we'll
help you pick out everything you need to
get this miniature marvel to visit your (or
Mom's) backyard.

Zen Birdfeeder. You can find it at http://

While dipping their grooved tongues into
nectar sources at up to 12 times a
second, the nectar is drawn up and into
their mouth each and every time. You can
observe this through the transparent
bottom of our WBU® Hummingbird
