Did you know there are over 10,000 bird species in the world?

This means that each time you step outside to enjoy nature, there's a plethora of feathered friends waiting to be discovered. Creating a biodegradable bird feeder and embarking on the journey of birdwatching serves a dual purpose - it not only awakens the birdwatching enthusiast in young adults and middle graders but also instills a strong awareness of sustainable living and conservation.

This fun guide will give you a closer look at the colorful world just outside your window while teaching the joyful art of DIY bird feeder creation.

From identifying your backyard birds to creating an eco-friendly habitat that invites their daily visits, we've got everything to turn you into an avid bird watcher.

Let's Get Started with Birdwatching and Creating Bird Feeders

First and foremost, our biodegradable bird feeder creation begins with materials you can easily find around your house. You’d be surprised to see what cardboard tubing from paper towels, shoe boxes, or old toilet paper rolls can transform into! The beauty of DIY bird feeders is that they not only offer a canvas for creativity but also an environmentally friendly way to care for our feathery neighbours. Choose your design based on the birds you’d like to attract, then grab some safe bird feed, string, peanut butter, and birdseed. Within no time, you’ll see your backyard bustling with bird activity!

Birdwatching Begins

Now the fun part begins – birdwatching! Grab your binoculars and birdwatching guide, and keep some delicious snacks and cool drinks nearby for your birdwatching for beginners adventure. You might want to take a sketchbook and colored pencils to draw the birds you spot in your backyard. Trust me, there's nothing quite like the thrill of bird identification! After all, spotting a new bird species for the first time is something that brings joy to us all, no matter our age. The regular visitors such as cardinals, robins, or sparrows will eventually start to feel like old friends, and every unexpected bird sighting is a delightful surprise.

The Impact of Birdwatching

Transitioning to becoming a young adult can sometimes overshadow the joys of simple outdoor activities. Yet birdwatching, with its quiet and gentle approach to exploring the world around us, subtly instills the values of sustainable living and conservation. It makes us more aware of our environment and encourages us to make bird-friendly choices. Once you start maintaining your homemade bird feeders and hosting your feathery friends, you may notice some subtle changes. Perhaps you'll start to notice the different bird calls, or begin appreciating the quiet afternoons spent in observation. And before you know it, you'll not only have become an adept birdwatcher but also a responsible guardian of Mother Nature.

Become a Birdwatching Superstar!

What’s more, this new hobby could make you a birdwatching superstar in your community of middle graders! Teaching your peers about different bird species, bird feeding tips, and the importance of wildlife conservation can be an impactful educational outdoor activity. Plus, everyone will love visiting your backyard for a glimpse of bird paradise. This fun guide aims to create not only exciting outdoor adventures but also a community centered around green living and eco-friendly crafts. The joy of creating bird feeders and enjoying birdwatching is something that can be shared and cherished with friends and family — making birdwatching a fantastic kid-friendly activity.
