Feed Birds – A Kindness That Keeps Nature Alive

Birds make our world beautiful with their colours, songs, and graceful movements. But as cities grow and natural spaces shrink, many birds struggle to find food and clean water. Feeding birds is one small act that helps keep nature in balance and protects these gentle creatures.

A handful of grains, seeds, or crumbs can make a huge difference to a bird searching for food. Placing a small bowl of water outside your window, balcony, or garden can save a thirsty bird during hot days. By providing food and water, we help birds stay healthy, strong, and safe.

Feeding birds also brings us closer to nature. Watching them eat, chirp, and fly around creates joy and peace in our daily lives. Children learn compassion, patience, and respect for living beings when they take part in this simple activity.

However, we must feed birds responsibly. We should give natural and safe foods like rice, bajra, jowar, seeds, or small fruits. We should avoid oily or salty food. Keeping the feeding area clean helps prevent diseases and keeps birds safe.

When we feed birds, we are not only caring for them—we are protecting biodiversity. Each bird we help supports the larger ecosystem. A small act of kindness today ensures a healthier environment tomorrow.

Let us all take a moment to feed birds and keep our skies full of life, colour, and music.
