Keep the birds safe
Although there is a wide range of bird feeders and tables on the market, it’s important to ensure that feeding the small birds in your garden doesn’t endanger them. Here are some things to consider about keeping the birds safe:
- Location - Think about where you position the feeder or table – open spaces make it difficult for lurking cats or foxes to hide!
- Feeders and tables - choose a well-made bird table or feeder, and make sure that there are no sharp edges or small spaces that could damage their delicate feet.
- Hygiene - Clean out food trays and containers regularly to avoid the risk of infection.
Help the baby birds
In the early part of the year when the birds prepare to nest and have their young, a nesting box provides them with a much needed safe haven.
- If you know which types of birds might have their young in your garden, choose a nest box with the appropriate entry hole for their species
- If you’re not certain, choose a multi-nester that’ll suit different birds
- Position the nest box so the birds have a clear line of flight to it
- Fix the box to a wall or tree, making sure it’s out of reach of inquisitive humans or predators!
