Switching To Suet For Winter Bird Feeding
Garden
During the winter months, when the frost is about to hit and bugs start to die off, birds begin to look for other food sources that will fill them with proteins and fats. Seeds are an excellent source of vitamins and nutrients, but many lack the amount of fat and protein birds need to survive in the winter. That’s why many bird enthusiasts switch to suet feed during winter. Suet is also a wonderful option for birds with bills that are not meant for opening seeds. If you want to attract a variety of birds to your yard, then a suet mixture is the way to go. There are plenty of types to select from that you can order or you can make your own at home.
