It's important to feed your garden birds all year round but especially now as breeding season isn't over and now there are millions more mouths to feed so bird food is still in high demand. 
Just link in winter, high-energy food is required to ensure that mothers and fledglings are getting the energy boost they need. 
Mealworms are an excellent source of protein and are one of the best foods you can give to birds in general. They are a natural source of sustenance all-year-round, and so too in summer. It provides an easy meal high in protein and fat, and when soaked in water they also provide extra hydration that birds need on warmer days. You can feed mealworms from any of our mealworm feeders.  
 
Suet is a great fast food for birds and a great source of energy, enabling birds easy access to essential fats and energy ready for breeding and fledging. We have suet available in pellets, fat balls, blocks and cakes, suitable for many different feeders and we can guarantee they will be a favorite in your garden. Depending on what you are feeding, you can feed from any of our suet feeders
 
Sunflower hearts are highly nutritious, oil-rich and come without the husks of complete sunflower seeds. Specially treated to prevent any extraneous growth in the garden, sunflower hearts are a sure favourite among many different garden bird species. Sunflower hearts can be fed from any of our sunflower heart feeders
 
RSPB advise: Feeding birds in the spring and summer may help them to raise their chicks more successfully. Remember, always put peanuts in a rigid mesh feeder (or crush them into smaller pieces), as large pieces of nut can choke baby birds.
