From the Expert
Last spring, my husband put out short lengths of red and green yarn for nesting birds. Within 45 minutes, they'd taken all the red yarn, but left the green. We put out more red yarn, which the birds grabbed, but they still didn't touch the green. Can you tell us if birds can distinguish colors and why they might have left the green yarn?
Get the answer from our Bird Expert, here.
