Meet our June Bird of the Month, the PLAIN CHACHALACA! This "tropical chicken" is another one of our exclusive Rio Grande Valley birds—you won't find them anywhere else in the U.S.! FUN FACTS 🟤 When you're in or near our native thorn forest, listen for the chachalacas' raucous morning chorus. You'll likely hear the birds before you see them. 🟤 Their calls can also signal a change in the weather, like an approaching storm. 🟤 Plain Chachalacas are the only species in the bird family Cracidae to range north into the U.S. Over-hunting has left many of their fellow species endangered. Learn more on the Cornell Lab of Ornithology site: https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Plain_Chachalaca/overview HOW TO ATTRACT 🟤 Plant native trees and shrubs in your yard. 🟤 They don't typically eat from feeders, but will enjoy cracked corn spread on the ground. 🟤 They'll also go for fruit, such as mangoes, grapes, and persimmons. 🟤 Put out a bird bath or other water source. 📣 And don't forget our FATHER'S DAY PROMO! 📣 With a $75+ purchase thru June 15th—for Dad or yourself—we'll throw in a FREE 5-lb. bag of our top-selling No-Mess Seed Blend ($20.99-value)!* Promo code: FREE5LB We've got tons of great gift options in our store for Dad, too.
