Help birds prepare for winter, then relax and enjoy the show.

Many changes are happening in nature. Days are growing shorter, temperatures are shifting, and the rhythms of nature are changing. While we’re settling into a cozy new season, birds are busy preparing for the challenges of winter, and your backyard can play an important role in their success.

As natural food sources begin to dwindle, providing a reliable food source at feeders becomes even more important. Keep foundational feeders filled with high-quality seed blends and energy-rich foods so birds can build the fat reserves they need. Be sure to offer SuperSuet® or other high-fat options, like Jim’s Birdacious® Bark Butter® or peanuts. Fresh water is just as important, so make sure bird baths are clean and accessible.

The simple steps you take now can make a big difference all winter long. By providing dependable food, water, and shelter, you’ll help birds prepare for the season ahead, while enjoying the comfort of a lively backyard just outside your window.
