It's very easy for the birds to find things to eat and water to drink this winter so far. Going into someone's yard is a last ditch effort to find food. I think they feel safer finding their food in groves and grassy areas of parks, etc. <br /><br />Just a hunch..... <br /><br />mariannenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-925673616741434546.post-26696741854685699902016-01-06T18:28:55.969-08:002016-01-06T18:28:55.969-08:00Oh, that's too bad.

Sometimes I will see them in my back yard just sitting on the fence, but I think it's such a glorious sight when they come around on their own. So, I just let nature be, and when they do come around, it's that much nicer.<br /><br />The snow in your yard looks like a winter wonderland, Susan. It's sooooo pretty.<br /><br />love, ~SheriRed Rose Alleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02685747099912989862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-925673616741434546.post-44644650231043093942016-01-06T12:52:40.413-08:002016-01-06T12:52:40.413-08:00I wish I had some answers - sorry!I wish I had some answers - sorry!Chatty Cronehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02232040517217024681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-925673616741434546.post-48190219489776759742016-01-06T10:24:37.214-08:002016-01-06T10:24:37.214-08:00I live in a completely different climate so can...I live in a completely different climate so can't help you out.

The birds must have large trees and preferably evergreen bushes and trees to shelter in at night and in storms. That is my two cents worth :) P.S. In cold areas it is always a blessing to the birds to plant evergreen bushes.Terra https://www.blogger.com/profile/04396481049075747940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-925673616741434546.post-13071996360192486092016-01-06T09:00:47.427-08:002016-01-06T09:00:47.427-08:00Hello fromSpain: I think the birds return in the s...Hello fromSpain: I think the birds return in the spring back into your garden.

They might be getting enough on fields and streams due to a lighter winter so far. Don't give up. When they are hungry they will be back and then you might notice them in a big flock when they do.Bookiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12043111213031211794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-925673616741434546.post-84249660929296049662016-01-06T07:45:16.393-08:002016-01-06T07:45:16.393-08:00Oh Susan, I wish I has some advice...
