Migrating birds feed on flower buds of this maple in early spring. It attracts Carolina Chickadee and American Goldfinch.
------------------------------
Here are som eother birds you might see at this bed:
Blue Jays sometimes forget some of the nuts they buried for winter use, thus acting as “reforesters.” American Crow, White-breasted Nuthatch, and Red-bellied Woodpecker feed from this tree.
Beautiful Arrow-wood berries ripen in early Fall, providing food for early migrators. Arrow-wood is a favorite of Eastern Bluebird, Northern Flicker, Gray Catbird, and American Robin
