No expert here either, but between the hackberries, various types of
viburnums and mahonias, privets, VA creeper, wild ivies and one
beautyberry - there are enough berries here to make them happy. Plus
feeders and sunflowers and the millet and wheat I allow to grow in the
wilder areas to suit most birds. There's the brush "cave" for the
ground lovers to hide/roost in and roosting pockets, plus the trees to
nest in.
Even left one dead tree in the back corner for the woodpeckers and
such. And all the understory shrubs provide plenty of cover, along w/
the honeysuckles that some bird is actually roosting in this year
which is cool. I think diversity is the key. Have 5 bird baths too.
And this place isn't big by any stretch of the imagination
