To help you along, we’re bringing together all the blogs we have to help you to make your garden a haven for feathered visitors.

Looking after wild birds

We’ve been working with the RSPB for many years to bring you the information you need to look after to the birds that might visit your garden throughout the year.

We have a great RSPB guide to feeding birds in winter. This blog looks at what food you can look at giving to your feathered friends, as well as what birdy beverages to (and not to) offer and what you can be doing ready for next season. We’ve even got a guide on the best food to feed ducks for you to check out!
