Peckish YouTube videos give birdcare advice


A series of new YouTube videos from Peckish are the perfect tool for educating staff and customers on how to feed wild birds.

The three videos released by the bird food manufacturer will help retailers educate their staff, offering important guidance and knowledge to consumers on how best to look after the birds in their garden to ensure they stay healthy:

Starring celebrity zoo and wildlife vet, Matt Brash, the videos are just a few minutes long each, but provide consumers and retailers with essential bitesize advice on how to care for wild birds.

Matt explains how vulnerable birds can be to seasonal food shortages and what we can do to protect them. The videos give quick easy tips, so viewers can be sure they are doing everything they can to help bring more birds to their garden.

Wendy French, Senior Marketing Manager for Peckish said: “We created these short videos that are interesting and informative because we want garden enthusiasts to have all the information they need to get more healthy and happy birds in their garden.”

Discover the videos on the Peckish YouTube channel, or via the Peckish website www.peckishbirdfood.com
