Bird watching is a rewarding pastime that can bring immense pleasure. There are so many health and wellness benefits to spending time in nature. A bird habitat is a wonderful way to entice seniors outdoors.
Hi Melody, when researching for this article, most articles indicated that while not illegal, bird feeding is discouraged by many councils and governments in Australia as the wrong food can negatively impact the health of native birds. If we are careful with the type and quantity of food, I think we can still safely enjoy this activity.
Thank you very much to Golden Carers for creating such an informative website. You have assisted me and my colleagues in developing a fun and engaging activities programme that is meaningful and interesting for our Bristol Care Homes residents. You are also our plan B in the event that plan A does not go as planned. We strongly advise all activity workers to join you.
