Default When should you start putting food out for the birds again?

The RSPB suggests that you feed them all year round. We do that here and
they oblige us by also eating the nasties we don't want.


I feed ours all year round unintentionally. I don't actually fill the peanut
feeders from breeding time to about now but almost all the local birds
come - to our hen feeders.

Before we had hens I fed the wild birds all year round. The hens do a much
better job of eating the nasties we don't want.
