● House martins, blue tits, song thrushes are just some species being hit 

● Stop songbirds being the canary in the coal mine! 

Take 5 Actions: 

1. Encourage biodiversity: plant insect-attracting and seeding plants. Use fewer pesticides 

2. Create a safe, bird friendly garden with plants that provide options for shelter and natural food 

3. Provide fresh, clean supplementary food, on a regular basis, particularly in mid-winter 

4. Offer clean water, refreshed daily, throughout the year 

5. Get others involved, support our work, donate or fundraise 

“Songbirds really are the canary in the coalmine: Climate change is hitting us with more extreme weather events, such as droughts and heat waves which put enormous stress on songbirds trying to feed and breed. Parched ground means some can’t access insects and worms for chicks. If insects appear too early or too late, breeding seasons are thrown off-kilter, and birds are caught out. Climate change has also brought increased risk of predation of some songbirds. There will always be winners and losers, but it’s the little birds losing out most. We hope the biodiversity and climate change conferences unite the UK around species that enrich our lives.” - Susan Morgan, CEO
