Did you know that: birds that stay here for the winter lose up to 10% of their weight during the winter months? Serve garden birds a flying buffet of calorie-rich tits to compensate for this weight loss ;) Or how about a tasty cake with mealworms and fruit pieces for dessert? <a href=/animal-and-pond/birds/feeding/>View our range of bird food here and <a href=/animal-and-pond/birds/accessories/feeders-and-drink-bottles-drink-bowls/>feeders/drink-bowls. Also, always provide a lukewarm bowl of water so the birds can drink plenty without the water freezing.

This is how to choose the perfect spot for the feeder!
- Hang the feeder high up on the branches of trees or a feeding station so that house and neighborhood cats can't reach it! Ideally near shrubs or trees with prickly leaves or thorns.
- Keep the feeding station clean so no pests come in or make the birds sick.

Every bird eats as it feeds
Did you know that blue titmice in particular love fat balls! Sparrows & finches love seeds & peanuts, and blackbirds love sweet raisins.
