Help Your Birds Stock Up on the Season's Best Foods

As autumn is here and cooler days creep in, some birds start caching (hiding), food for a later meal. These hidden stashes are their backup plan when natural food sources run low or the weather makes foraging a no-go. You can help your birds, including these little hoarders, by offering high-protein, high-calorie foods that give them the fuel they need. Shop now for the best selection of nutrition-packed options, and turn your feeder into a reliable stop for the birds.

Save the Date - Saturday, October 24th 11:00am - 1:00pm

Join us when we welcome back Sara and Lara from Mountsberg Raptor Centre.

Birds may differ from ones shown above.  Lara shared that the birds let them know when they are excited to go in their carrier and be part of an event.  We have been fortunate to see Shadow the Barn Owl - always a favourite - even when napping!

This is a free event, however please bring one or more non-perishable food items with you as we collect for The Food Bank of Waterloo Region. Wondering what is needed - continue reading . . .
