Seasonal feeding
Suet blocks provide valuable seasonal feeding solutions for birds throughout the year, offering support during various seasons.
Suet blocks are especially beneficial during the winter months when natural food sources are scarce. The high energy content of suet blocks helps birds maintain their body temperature and sustain their energy levels during cold weather. Birds burn more calories to stay warm in winter, and suet blocks provide a dense source of calories to help them survive.
In spring, birds are busy with activities such as nesting, mating, and raising young. Suet blocks with added proteins are valuable during this time as they provide essential nutrients for breeding birds. The high fat content also supports parent birds in meeting the increased energy demands of caring for their offspring.
While natural food sources are more abundant in summer, suet blocks can still be beneficial for birds, especially during periods of drought or extreme heat when insects and fruits may be less available. Suet blocks provide a reliable source of energy for birds, helping them stay nourished and hydrated during hot weather.
