Join Nature’s Gym and ChART to make your own bird feeder to take away. It is of course important to feed birds all year round, but it is especially important in winter when their food is not so easy to come by. Birds require high energy (high fat) foods during the cold winter weather to maintain their fat reserves to survive the frosty nights which is why we will be using bird seed and peanut butter.
Be prepared to get a little bit mucky, so it might be best to wear clothes you don’t mind getting covered in peanut butter and nuts!
The RSPB website will provide you with a lot more information about how you can help birds and attract them to your garden.
