Tree-free bird feeders for New Zealand gardens
We love seeing a kererū in a kōwhai or tūī in a tawa gobbling fruit and nectar. Even better if we can supplement the birds’ natural food sources by hanging a feeder to get them through times of food scarcity. But what if trees aren’t an option at your place?
Get-up-and-go
As winter hits, trees and shrubs go dormant above ground for the season, biding their time until spring arrives. That means fewer food sources like nectar, berries and insects for our wild bird friends.
