RSPB What that Bird

Ze worden heet tijdens het gebruik en koelen af als ze niet worden gebruikt. Ze verslijten na verloop van tijd en moeten worden vervangen.

It's a common problem. I put new bird seed in a baking pan and put it out on the patio for a few days. When the bugs hatch they're out doors.

In the winter months there are no insects for birds to eat, so it is more important that they have an abundance of food in the feeder. As for what kinds of food, it can be the same seeds that you offer the birds in the summer.

1) Kitchen scraps are generally fed to larger birds such as ducks and gulls. Because birds who eat from birdfeeders are generally much smaller, you should tear the food scraps into very small pieces so they can fit into very small beaks. Monitor the birdfeeder after a couple of days, and if the food is still there, it means the birds don't like it.

1) Different birds like different kinds of seeds. For example, almost all birds enjoy sunflower seeds. Other popular seeds include safflower, corn, Millet, Milo, Nyjer and Suet. If you know of a certain species of bird that lives near you, you can check the chart on this website to see what seeds that bird enjoys.

In order to attract this particular bird type you should fill your feeder with black-oil sunflower seeds, safflower and sunflower hearts.

There are recipes for homemade bird seed treats that involve suet or some other sticking agent that keeps it together so you can hang it in a lump. But I came across a very cute web posting with a recipe for a bird seed treat that is heart shaped! Check out this link http://kids.nationalgeographic.com/kids/activities/crafts/wild-bird-treat/

Goodquestion! Although most people are familiar with bird seed as the main sourceof bird food, there are other things you can feed your bird such as:

• Water
• Suet
• Nectar (easyto make yourself)
• Grit
• Peanuts
• Fruit
• Mealworms
