Fall feeding: Peanuts and suet make a difference

Posted

As the days grow shorter and temperatures begin to drop, fall is an important time to provide backyard birds with nutritious, high-energy foods. Natural food sources can become harder to find as insects disappear and plants finish producing their seeds. Offering supplemental food can help birds get the energy they need to prepare for migration and the colder months ahead.

Peanuts and suet are especially valuable fall foods. Peanuts are packed with protein and healthy fats, making them an excellent energy source for a variety of backyard favorites, including woodpeckers, chickadees, nuthatches, titmice and jays. Suet provides concentrated calories and fat that can help birds maintain their energy when temperatures fall. Both are easy ways to make your yard a welcoming stop for hungry birds throughout autumn.

At Wild Birds Unlimited, you can find a wide selection of quality peanuts, suet, bird food, feeders and other bird-feeding supplies. Our knowledgeable staff can also help you choose the right foods and feeders for the birds visiting your backyard.

Fall is a wonderful time to enjoy the increased activity around your feeders. By offering nutritious choices like peanuts and suet, you can support the birds you love while bringing more color, movement, and enjoyment to your backyard. Stop by Wild Birds Unlimited and get ready for a great season of fall bird feeding.
