Bringing Wildlife Home Bird Feeding Starter Set | Bird Feeding Gift for Bird Lovers | A Little Bird Co

We post all orders within 1-2 working days (Monday - Friday during working hours). Our standard shipping takes 2-3 days to arrive. We also offer express shipping which should reach you more quickly.

Our standard and Little Birder starter sets both include a Little Lantern lightweight bird feeder, a 1.75kg bag of seasonal food, perfect for the time of year, and a book to get you started.

The Starter Set is perfect for anyone who wants to make bird feeding simple and joyful. It’s a brilliant choice for beginners, children who are curious about nature, or seasoned bird lovers who’d like everything they need in one box. It also makes a thoughtful gift for friends and family.

That depends on how many birds you get. On average, a bag lasts around 2–4 weeks in a typical garden. If you’re already feeding the birds, they’ll find the feeder more quickly and you may get through it faster. If you’re just starting out, it might take them a little while to notice their new dining spot. Either way, once they’ve discovered it, your garden will soon be on their regular rounds.

We don’t use cheap fillers that birds ignore. Every ingredient is chosen because small garden birds love it, and because it supports their needs through the changing seasons. Our blends are wheat-free, waste-free, and designed to attract the songbirds you most want to see, like robins, blue tits and finches.

Yes! All of our packaging is fully compostable, so once the bag is empty you can pop it straight in your food waste or compost bin. We also carefully choose feeders and extras for durability and sustainability, so you can feel good about your purchase.

Absolutely. The Starter Set makes a lovely gift for bird lovers of all ages. You can even add one of our greetings cards at checkout to make it extra special. Perfect for birthdays, Christmas, or just as a surprise for someone who could use a little more nature in their day. It comes in a gift-ready box, and you can add a handwritten greetings card for £2.

Not at all. Our feeders work just as well in small gardens, courtyards or even on balconies. If you’ve got a safe outdoor space to hang a feeder, the birds will find it.

Our seasonal blends are designed to tempt the songbirds you love to see – robins, blue tits, great tits, wrens, finches and sparrows, along with woodpeckers and nuthatches. Every garden is a bit different, but you’ll soon notice who your regular visitors are, and you can note down the birds you see in the journal that comes with the standard Starter Set, or learn to recognise them with the book if you go for the set designed for children.

Yes! Subscribing is the easiest way to keep your feeder topped up. You’ll get the right blend delivered at the right time of year, with free delivery on your first three orders. It means less hassle for you, and more happy, well-fed birds in your garden. You'll receive a code for your free delivery offer with your Starter Set.
