With bird populations on the decline everywhere in North America, it's more important than ever to make our yards bird-friendly. You can do your part to help songbirds by offering them the three things they need the most: shelter, food, and a fresh source of water. Snap up great deals on birdhouses, bird feeders, and bird baths during Amazon Prime Days, now until July 11.

Shop first for a welcoming birdhouse. If you want to know how to attract birds to a birdhouse, first make sure it's made of wood and not metal. Metal birdhouses can get too hot in the summer or cold in the winter. Try the adorably decorated Cartman hanging colorful birdhouse bird feeder on sale for $15.99. It has an easy access door, so you can clean out any nests left behind from the previous year.

Want to give the kids a hand at decorating their own birdhouse? Try the Crafty Happitoys 12-pack build-your-own birdhouse kit set to get all the kids or grandkids involved. The easy-to-assemble kits make 12 birdhouses in three shapes. Paint, paint brush, and decorative stickers are included. Buy it now for less than $27. Once you have a birdhouse, if you find you don't have a fence post or tree that's suitable to hang it from, grab an 80-inch adjustable combination bird feeder and birdhouse pole as a perch for it. You can stake it anywhere in the yard. At $15.99, it's 47% off regular price during Prime Days.

Another thing to scoop up during Amazon Prime days is a great bird feeder. Keep in mind the differences between bird feeders versus birdhouses. Bird feeders, of course, are where birds get their meals, while birdhouses are where they make a nest. Birds love bird feeders and the science says birds are healthier and less stressed when there's one close by.

You've no doubt seen the feeders with cameras for songbirds, but did you know they make them for hummingbirds, too? Try the TT Nature hummingbird feeder with camera and never miss a quick feeding from those fast-moving, ever elusive hummingbirds. Normally priced at $189.99, during Prime Days, get it for $123.48. If you want a pretty bird feeder that works double time at night as a decorative lantern, then buy the solar bird feeder for outdoors from DesGully, a pretty copper-colored decorative bird feeder. During the day, birds feast on the seeds, but at night a solar-powered light turns it into a pretty lantern in the yard. Get it now for 15% off at $16.99. 

Want to see the birds while sitting inside your house? The Jarkyfine clear window bird feeder suctions right to the outside of any window. You don't need a tree branch or even a yard to hang this feeder in. During Prime Days, it's 25% off, so you can snag it for $14.99.

In addition to bird feeders, bird baths are a key element to make your yard bird-friendly. Bird baths keep birds hydrated and clean. The Dreamysoul metal bird bath comes with a planter at its base for colorful annuals and a whimsical copper design complete with sunflowers, hummingbirds, and pretty vines. It has a solar powered light above the bath and a tray for seeds. During Prime Days it's 25% off and under $50. 

If you want a bird bath you can stake in your flower beds, try the outdoor glass bird bath from Dream Garden. The flower-shaped glass bird bath comes in different colors, including red, blue, and pink. It's between 15% and 28% off regular price, depending on the color you pick, but they're all under $24.  If you want a bird bath, but don't have a lot of room in your yard for one, you can try a space-saving bird bath that attaches right to a porch or deck railing. Keygift's deck mounted bird bath for outdoors clamps directly to the railing. It's now under $14, more than 40% off.

If you're looking to save a little cash, you can always make your own birdbath, too. To easily DIY a charming bird bath using an old tomato cage, just grab a tomato cage, planter tray and solar fountain, and you can build your own. Adding a bird bath, along with food and shelter, will make your yard bird friendly.
