Feeding Native Birds in Winter
With cooler weather, many native birds appreciate a little extra help. The key is to provide food that supports their natural diet without causing harm.
Good options:
- Native seed mixes from reputable suppliers
- Mealworms and garden worms
- Chopped fruit (apple, pear, berries)
- Soaked dog kibble or pet food
Avoid bread, mince, and anything salty or sugary.
