Get your kids into nature this Easter – this chocolate free, boredom busting gift will keep the whole family entertained
Instead of endless chocolate and too much screen-time, why not celebrate this Easter by getting the family closer to nature and enjoy the wonder of observing and discovering the fascinating world of wildlife taking place in your very own garden?
April is a fantastic time of year to observe bird life in particular, as UK gardens transform into a hive of activity as Spring activity peaks with nesting, singing, and increased feeding. Common garden birds like Robins, Blackbirds, and Blue Tits are busy building nests using twigs and moss, and migrating birds including the first Swallows, House Martins, and Willow Warblers start arriving from Africa

Here, FeatherSnap’s in-house Ornithologist, Maria Kincaid, gives her top tips on how to create a bird-friendly garden to make the most of your wildlife observation this Easter time:
- Fostering natural habitat with native plants, nesting spots, and insect life
- Ceasing the use of pesticides to protect essential food sources
- Preventing window strikes with decals and safe feeder positioning
- Embracing “mess” by leaving seed heads, fallen leaves and branches for foraging
- Providing clean water for drinking and bathing, ideally via a shallow bird bath or small fountain, cleaned and refilled regularly
- Keeping feeders either within three feet of windows or more than ten to reduce the risk of collisions, hanging them around five feet high for both access and squirrel deterrence, and positioning them near cover, without creating hiding spots for cats.
