North America is home to many amazing bird species, including several which require a special effort to see and appreciate.

One of my favorite things about Central America are the bird feeders. They are species that breed in the US and then spend the winter in Central and South America, eating what’s avialable–especially fruit. Fruit is something that migratory birds could eat and worth trying in your yard in North America.
