		Bird Feeding One of the real joys of a garden is the variety of visitors it attracts - especially birds. It is, however, more important than ever that when feeding our winged guests we do so responsibly and safely.
		Hygienic Bird Feeding When a number of birds are attracted into an area to feed, the danger of disease increases. It is therefore essential that tables and feeders are checked and brushed or swept clean regularly.
		Wild Bird Food Find out what you should and shouldn't be feeding wild birds in our article on wild bird food.
		Save Our Plants Plantlife acts directly to stop common wild plants becoming rare in the wild, to rescue wild plants on the brink of extinction, and to protect sites of exceptional botanical importance.
