There’s more to feeding backyard birds than throwing out some seeds and hoping for the best. Depending on where you live and what kind of birds you are able to attract, you will need to select the right food for your local feathered friends.

Feeding wild birds can be a long-term commitment. Once you put out a feeder, it can take a while for birds to discover it. But when they do, birds will begin to look for food in your vicinity all the time, so be prepared to continue feeding throughout the year, and not just in winter when food is scarce. In fact, spring and summer (during nesting season) is even more important, when adults raise their broods. You don’t want them to waste valuable energy coming to your feeder to look for tasty treats if they aren’t there.

In return for your efforts and diligence, though, you’ll be treated to a fascinating array of wildlife right in your backyard, and enjoy seeing them delight at the cornucopia you have provided for them. Read on for how to select the right wild bird food, and see our top picks.

What do birds eat?
Making your own bird food is a great way not only to help birds, but also to observe them up close. But if you look closely, you will soon realise that not all birds eat everything you put out for them. Like humans, birds have distinct tastes and dietary needs, and different bird species prefer different types of food. If you choose to make your own bird food, you need to know about the following bird species so that you can cater to as many as possible.

Tip: Another way of helping the birds in your garden is to plant a bird-friendly seeds.

1. Granivorous birds
Seeds are probably the first type of food that springs to mind when you think of feeding birds. Birds that primarily eat grains and seeds are known as granivores. Many native bird species, such as the sparrow, finch, and hawfinch, prefer hard grains as their primary food source and are able to eat them thanks to their powerful beaks. Generally speaking, granivorous birds will eat almost any type of seed, but sunflower seeds, linseed and h**p seeds are preferred.


2. Birds that eat soft foods
In contrast to granivores, birds that have small, pointed beaks that are not powerful enough to crack open large seeds and grains prefer feeding on soft foods. While these birds usually prefer to feed on insects and berries, they will also eat fruits and smaller seeds, such as poppy seeds for instance. Birds that fall into this category include robins, wrens, blackbirds, and starlings. Blackbirds have more delicate beaks and therefore eat softer foods


3. Omnivorous birds
Omnivores like woodpeckers, t**s, and nuthatches are the easiest birds to cater for. Although they usually prefer soft foods, they will also eat larger grains and other seeds. When you feed omnivorous birds, you will notice that they peck at both the soft food and the grain mixture. Because the nuthatch is an omnivore, it is very uncomplicated to feed

How to encourage birds to visit my garden?

Whether you have a small, city patch, garden or acres of fields, you can still encourage wild birds to visit your garden

Put out suitable food and seeds on a bird table and in bird feeders – even one that sticks to a window will do the trick!

Birds eat different things so try seeds for sparrows and finches, fat balls for t**s, and fruit and worms for thrushes and robins.

As long as it’s not moldy, you can also pop out leftovers like fruit cake, unsalted nuts, and over-ripe apples and pears

The amount of food you need to supply will vary depending on the season and weather, try to put out only what will get eaten, so there’s nothing left to go off.

Do not forget to provide fresh water too and make sure you clean bird feeders and bird tables regularly to avoid disease

You can also provide places for birds to nest and rest safely by planting native trees and shrubs or putting up nesting boxes around your garden.
