Garden Wildlife Near Woodland Birdhouses
Oak branches in leafy country gardens provide sturdy highways for nimble squirrels moving between trees and feeder stations. Wooden birdhouses mounted on mature tree limbs offer shelter for cavity-nesting songbirds away from ground-level garden pests. Busy tree squirrels frequently investigate wooden garden structures while searching for stored seeds, acorns, and fruit.
Surprising Facts About Tree Squirrels and Garden Nesting
Tree squirrels can leap distances of up to ten feet between branches thanks to strong hind legs and bushy tails that aid in balance. Squirrels help plant future oak forests by burying thousands of acorns each autumn and forgetting where many of them are hidden. Small songbirds prefer nest box entrance holes tailored strictly to their body size to keep larger animals from reaching inside.
