Aired; February 21st, 2025.

National Bird Feeding month is a month to help birds survive the winter by providing food, water, and shelter. February is one of the most difficult months for birds to survive because of limited food and cold temperatures. This month is meant to educate people about wild bird feeding and watching. Dan Brauning and Brian Byrns made an appearance on The Spark to share more information about Bird watching. Dan Bruaning is a leading Ornithologist who has dedicated his life to studying and protecting birds in Pennsylvania. He’s worked with the Game Commission for over 30 years, lead major bird atlas projects, and even co-authored The Birds of Pennsylvania.
