Halloween Treats for Backyard Birds

By , About.com GuideOctober 31, 2009

Follow me on:

Give your backyard birds a treat this Halloween weekend with some tasty kitchen scraps, homemade suet, fresh nectar or just the best birdseed you can find. By offering a greater variety of foods, you can attract many more bird species and enjoy an even larger backyard flock. While some foods, such as kitchen scraps, should not replace the more nutritious seeds you offer, an occasional treat will be welcome and appreciated at your feeders.
