Feeds Advice & Tips
Feeding Birds
Despite common misconception it is important that wild birds are fed and cared for all year round. In the spring and summer months wild birds use up to ten times more energy than in winter as they are highly active and in many cases go without food in order to ensure their fledglings are fed.
Due to expanding towns and new farming methods their natural source of food is ever decreasing and far scarcer, even in the warmer months. So it is very important to maintain full feeders all year round.
Once you have started to feed the birds please DO NOT STOP as they will become reliant on your help. They may take time to become used to feeding in new locations but please be patient.
Try to have multiple feed sites where ever possible to stop overcrowding in one area. Ensure that food is fresh as this will help stop bacterial build up.
Only provide enough food to last 2 to 3 days but you'll find that this volume will need to increase over time.
Feeding stations should be located under cover where possible and at a height if there is a risk of cats or other predators.
Dispose of old food deposits and any food that has become sodden, this will help prevent the build-up of harmful bacteria and toxins.
Regularly clean your feeding stations to prevent bacterial build up using warm water and a bird safe disinfectant.
Following this advice will not only be hugely beneficial to our feathered friends but will also supply great pleasure to those who get to enjoy watching them.
