🌰 Calling all garden lovers! 🏡 This September, give your local wildlife a helping hand by scattering some peanuts in your garden. As summer winds down and autumn takes over, many birds are gearing up for their big migration to warmer climates. This is where peanuts come in handy!
Peanuts are a top snack choice for many bird species like woodpeckers, tits, and nuthatches. They’re packed with nutrients and can transform your backyard into a lively birdwatching haven as these feathered friends stop by for a snack.
For the little robins visiting your garden, remember to crush the peanuts to avoid any choking hazards. And don’t forget, it’s best to use unsalted peanuts in mesh feeders for safety.
Looking for a fun DIY project? Why not make a ‘bird cake’! Mix peanuts, dried fruits, breadcrumbs, cooked rice, and grated cheese with softened lard to hold it all together. Mold the mixture into a paste, pack it into a yoghurt pot with a string for hanging, and watch the birds flock to your creation.
Spread the love for our feathered friends and enjoy the added bonus of nature’s beauty in your garden. 🍃🐦🌿#BirdFeeding #GardenWildlife #NatureLovers
