Researchers set up feeding
stations (seed trays) in yards landscaped in one of two ways, either with
native landscaping or with non-native landscaping. They then measured how much
seed was left uneated to determine how long birds remained in the habitat.
A recent study has shown that
homeowners can turn their yards into mini bird refuges by planting vegetation
that replicates or mimics native floral species. The research focused on native
bird communities and landscape types in and around Phoenix, Arizona.
