Wrens are the unsung heroes of the garden: tiny but ferocious pest controllers, and one of the sweetest species, in my opinion. I’d say it’s well worth figuring out how to attract wrens to your garden.
You can forget about fat balls, seed mixes and peanuts, though – wrens prefer to hunt naturally, and there are a few ways you can lend them a helping hand. Of course, conventional bird food is great if you’re wondering what to feed other birds in the garden – but make sure you’re aware of the RSPB’s latest bird feeding guidance, which urges gardeners to steer clear of seeds and peanuts.
