Wild Bird Feeding Guidance
9Apr
New data from UK Pet Food reveals there is a drop off in feeding our wild birds across the spring and summer months, despite this being one of the most important times to support them.
As we move into spring and the warmer months, it is still important to support our wild birds, particularly as they enter breeding and nesting season. At this time of year, adult birds are working hard to raise their young, with higher energy demands as they build nests and feed their chicks.
Alongside consistent feeding, maintaining good hygiene is key to helping protect bird health and ensuring feeding remains safe.
Simple steps can make a big difference:
• Clean feeders regularly to reduce the risk of disease
• Provide fresh, clean water
• Keep feeding areas tidy and well managed
• Avoid food becoming damp or spoiled
As part of the UK Pet Food campaign, Copdock Mill is proud to support responsible bird feeding and positive action for wildlife.
