We are going to help the birds to get through the winter. In this cold period, birds use a lot of energy to keep themselves warm. In winter, they find little food such as insects, berries and seeds, especially when it freezes or snows. They could use some help.

We are going to spoil them. We melt fat and mix it with seeds. Messing around, that’s allowed with us. We pour that mixture into a cup. You can then hang it outside on the earpiece. The birds are getting closer to your house, you can now take a nice closer look. Nice, all those birds, you want to enjoy them as much as possible.

Find a suitable place to hang the cup, where they can easily reach. Preferably near a hedge where the birds can hide. With this food you provide a source of energy. Food scraps such as cheese crusts and bread are not so suitable as food, they contain too much salt. Pieces of apple are good.

Will you come and make such a bird surprise with us? And…, enjoy the birds!
