Autumn & Winter Feeding:
At this time of year birds benefit from being fed a high energy ( High Fat Diet)
In these coldest winter climates birds benefit immensely from being fed a diet of high fat food which can help even the smallest of birds in helping them to generate extra body heat, so its vital to feed birds such a diet high in calories and high in fat such as suet and fatballs.
Spring & Summer Feeding:
During the warmer climate birds require protein foods such as black sunflower seeds, mealworms, waxworks, Nyjer seed and peanuts. (Peanuts should be fed from metal feeders preventing the chicks to choke).
It is known that birds chose this time of year to breed and feed their chicks as the availability of insects is more vast such as earthworms & caterpillars, however, in the colder, wet rainier days insects are not so readily availible and when the weather is extremely dry the earthworms will not be readily availible causing a shortage of supply for the birds and their young chicks which is why its so important to only place feed which is appropriate to feeding the chicks or they will choke and will be fatal doing more harm than good. ~ ( RSPB)
