GardenBird.co.uk Discuss The End Of Summer And The Migration Of Birds For Winter
Online, October 26, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Online garden food and accessory retailer GardenBird.co.uk discusses the migration of birds for winter and the end of summer.
Summer has ended and the country is in the process of slowly getting colder, heading towards the freezing winter months ahead. Birds migrate when the days get shorter and the weather gets colder, this in turn occurs at a time when there are hormonal changes in certain birds.
When the birds migrate for winter they are heading to warmer countries. Most birds migrating from the UK will be heading to Africa for the winter, due to the temperature being a lot higher than it will be in the UK.
Climate change has had a big effect on bird migration, which is a cause for concern among many scientists. Those birds remaining in the UK will have a tough winter ahead, due to temperatures being much lower than usual, and weather being more extreme.
A Sales Spokesman for GardenBird.co.uk commented, "We're very concerned for birds like the Robin that remain in the UK throughout winter. With heavy snowfall they'll have a tough time finding food, and if they don't keep up their fat reserves the cold weather could kill them. At the moment we're having an end of season sale where customers can buy goods for their garden birds with up to 40% off the price. Through this sale we hope that customers will be motivated to continue to feed the birds visiting their garden through the whole winter, and help preserve their numbers."
Many people care for wild birds in their garden and love having these small creatures flitting around them as they do their gardening work in the spring and summer. Feeding garden birds is something that everyone can do easily, and through it they will help keep the numbers of British bird species up.
GardenBird.co.uk is an online retailer of garden bird food and accessories. They have a wide range of products that are all perfect for anyone to use in their garden. Currently the company are running an end of season sale which is encouraging people to buy what they need to feed their garden birds through winter at a discounted price.
