Bird watching is a rewarding pastime that can bring immense pleasure. There are so many health and wellness benefits to spending time in nature. A bird habitat is a wonderful way to entice seniors outdoors.
Hi Melody, when researching for this article, most articles indicated that while not illegal, bird feeding is discouraged by many councils and governments in Australia as the wrong food can negatively impact the health of native birds. If we are careful with the type and quantity of food, I think we can still safely enjoy this activity.
I really love your website. I still find it incredulous that this site exists. I know how hard it must be for our Lifestyle teams to keep coming up with ideas and activities and to now have found this site - WOW. I really do think it says a lot about the immense value of community collaboration - because this site is about that! so I am immensely proud that people, especially older people, may be benefitting from this wonderful resource all over the world.
