## Resource

Birds may seem quieter or scruffier this summer — don’t panic, it’s moult season! Between July and October, most garden birds shed old feathers and grow new ones, a draining process that makes them hide more and look a bit ragged. Keep feeding them (especially protein-rich treats like mealworms), keep water clean, and leave dense vegetation untouched to give them shelter. Avoid approaching dishevelled birds unless injured — your consistent support helps them survive and bounce back strong once their feathers are fresh again.
