There are many joys to be had from a garden visited by birds – from the movement and color they bring, to the peaceful charm of watching them flit and feed, or hearing them chirruping in the trees. Yet, have you ever wondered why some gardens are always full of birds, while others lack feathered visitors?
Not only is a garden filled with birds pleasant to our eyes and ears, recent research from King’s College London found that seeing or hearing birds is associated with an improvement in mental wellbeing that can last up to eight hours.
