Feeding & Hygiene Tips-The BTO and RSPB recommend wild birds are fed all year round. – Requirements are greater in late autumn and winter when natural resources are in shorter supply. – High energy levels are also needed during spring when birds are busy breeding and raising young. – Birds lose energy maintaining body temperature overnight, so a good breakfast is essential to set them up for the day. – Once you have established a feeding regime dont disappoint them, they will depend on you. – Establish several feeding areas and move them regularly to avoid bacterial build up. – Consider predators when selecting suitable feeding sites, set table and feeder heights accordingly and make sure birds feeding on the ground have a good line of sight. – Store all foods in a cool, dry place. – Be aware that ground feeding stations can attract rodents. Hygiene Tips- Feed little and often. – Replace old or wet food to prevent build up of bacteria or mould, particularly on table and ground feeding stations. – Clean feeding stations regularly with a safe disinfectant. – Always wash your hands after handling bird products.
