The Ultimate Guide to Feeding Garden Birds in Winter

Winter is a challenging time for garden birds, as natural food sources become scarce. Providing a safe and nutritious feeding environment can make all the difference to their survival. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help bird lovers support their garden birds.

1. Choose the Right Feeder Placement
Position your feeders in a safe, sheltered spot, ideally near hedges or trees for natural cover. This helps birds feel secure from predators while feeding. Avoid areas exposed to strong winds or open spaces where they may feel vulnerable.

2. Prioritize Food Hygiene
Cleanliness is crucial to prevent the spread of diseases among birds. Wash feeders regularly with a mild disinfectant and rinse thoroughly. Replace food frequently to avoid mold and spoilage, especially during wet or frosty conditions.

3. Offer High-Quality, Nutritious Food
Winter requires birds to consume more energy-dense food. Haith’s bird food products are specially formulated to provide optimal nutrition.
