💧 Help your garden birds beat the heat 🐦

Swipe through for essential tips on keeping your feathered friends hydrated during this heatwave.

While we're reaching for ice-cold drinks, our garden birds are struggling. Natural water sources are drying up, and they desperately need our help.

The RSPB recommends:
✓ Fresh water daily (change it)
✓ Clean weekly (prevent disease)
✓ Shallow bowls with pebbles (safe drinking)
✓ Shady spots (cooler water, safer from predators)

Birds don't have sweat glands, so they lose water through respiration and droppings in extreme heat. A simple dish of water could literally save a life.

What you can do RIGHT NOW:
→ Fill a bowl or bird bath
→ Top it up daily
→ Give it a proper scrub weekly
→ Position in shade

That's it. That's how you help. 🌊
