Moving feeders around your garden can help prevent the buildup of waste and mould, which can be harmful to birds. When feeders stay in one spot for too long, spilled seeds and droppings can accumulate, creating an unhealthy environment. By rotating the locations, you distribute the feeding activity, allowing different areas of your garden time to recover and regrow. This practice ensures that no single spot becomes overused, which can lead to soil compaction and damage to plants.

Changing feeder locations can also reduce the risk of predators targeting a specific spot. Predators like cats and hawks may learn the fixed locations of your feeders and lie in wait for unsuspecting birds. By frequently moving the feeders, you keep the birds on their toes and make it harder for predators to develop a successful hunting strategy. Birds will feel safer and more inclined to visit if they perceive less danger, resulting in a more vibrant and active garden.

Additionally, this practice can minimise the impact on your landscaping, preventing overuse of particular areas and maintaining a more aesthetically pleasing garden. Constant feeder movement encourages a healthier and more diverse plant growth by preventing any one area from becoming worn down. It also allows you to enjoy different views of the visiting birds from various parts of your garden, enhancing your birdwatching experience. Regularly changing feeder locations keeps your garden dynamic and engaging, both for you and the birds.
