What do you feed garden birds?
Garden birds benefit most from a combination of energy-rich (fat) and natural protein. That's why you'll find fat balls with insects and dried mealworms in this category.
Feeding places & products from this category
- Fat balls: hang them neatly with afat ball holder (easy and clear).
- Window feeding spot: with the Trixie window feeder you can watch from close up.
- Dispenser: The food dispenser with mesh protection helps keep the feeding area tidy.
- Fat block: the feeder & fat block is a nice option as a supplement.
Breeding season: extra protein moments
During the breeding season, many birds seek out more protein-rich food. Small protein-rich meals, such as mealworms, are helpful. Keep the feeding area clean and offer small portions that can be eaten the same day.
Checklist: garden bird feeding station
- Feeding area in a quiet place with good visibility (and preferably shelter)
- 1–2 feeding solutions (e.g. fat ball holder + dispenser)
- Drinking water in a shallow bowl
- Cleaning routine (1–2x per week, more often in wet weather)
Safety warnings
- Prevent wet/spoiled food: remove leftovers and check for mold.
- Hang/place feeding stations so that cats cannot reach them.
- Preferably use holders/dispensers instead of loose (plastic) nets.
- Clean feeding areas regularly with hot water and allow to dry thoroughly.
