Winter is a tough time for our feathered friends, and robins are no exception. These charming garden visitors need extra energy to stay warm and thrive during the colder months. Here are a few tips to help you feed your robins this winter:
-
Mealworms are a Robin’s Favourite
Robins love mealworms! Whether live, dried, or soaked, they provide a protein-rich snack that helps keep them energised. -
Choose a Robin-Friendly Bird Feeder
Robins are ground feeders, so a bird table or ground feeder is ideal. Scatter food in areas they frequent for an easy meal. -
Offer Fat-Based Foods
Suet pellets and fat balls are great for providing robins with the high-calorie food they need. Place them in feeders or directly on the ground. -
Keep Water Available
Fresh water is vital during the winter, so make sure to break the ice in bird baths and keep them topped up.
