Many of us feed birds crumbs and scatter seeds in front of pigeons in the park in winter.

Others diligently make bird feeders and hang them away from the bustle of the city, closer to the forest.

In winter, birds really need food, otherwise not all individuals survive until summer.

It is also important to remember that most birds can feed themselves, but this situation is more relevant in the forest.

How to feed birds in winter
