Be ready to feed your birds this November...
Join Cumbria Wildlife Trust before 20 October 2026 and you'll get your very own FREE Flutter Butter starter pack.
The starter pack has everything you'll need to start your bird feeding journey, or to add more for birds in your garden. The starter pack includes the Flutter Butter hanging feeder and two 140g EcoRefills. Flutter Butter is high in nutrients and calories and low in salt (unlike normal peanut butter), which means it's a great source of energy for birds.
During winter, birds burn through their fat reserves to maintain their body temperature, which means they need high-fat foods to support their energy needs. In line with the RSPBs recent guidance on how to feed birds, you'll receive your Flutter Butter starter pack in November, when it is advised to start feeding them again.
This is an easy way to add nutritious bird food to your garden straight away. Find out more about how your support helps nature.
