Enjoy feeding the birds in your garden? You've probably seen the reports in the news that the RSPB is suggesting we shouldn't feed seed throughout the summer months and wondered what that's all about.

Their research has shown a decline in the population of some species, such as greenfinches and chaffinches, which they believe is due to a disease called Trichomonosis. This disease is commonly transmitted through the saliva of infected birds, and causes lesions in the birds throat preventing them from swallowing their food.
When birds eat seed they often have to husk it - breaking the outer casing - to get to the good stuff inside. This process leaves saliva on the seeds that they drop, which other birds can pick up when they come to feed.

However, summer is the prime breeding and nesting season, and wild birds are searching more for food sources to support their young, especially in areas where their natural habitats are being lost eg to housing developments.
UK Pet Food and other bird experts are jointly encouraging us to continue feeding the wild birds through spring and summer, but to do it responsibly. By putting out a range of foods, spreading out feeders to reduce clustering, changing waters daily, not feeding on flat surfaces such as bird tables where contaminated foods can collect, and cleaning all feeders regularly, they say the risk of any diseases being passed on is reduced.

At Herne Bay Pet Shop we sell a wide range of wild bird foods, including seeds that the birds don't need to husk, mealworms, suet pellets, and fatballs. All are available in small bags or bulk sacks/boxes.
