Garden Bird Supplies awarded Birdcare Standards Association 2009 Gold Standard for Ultiva® SuperMix birdfood

• Monday, 14 December 2009

Garden Bird Supplies have been awarded the 2009 Gold Standard by the BSA (Birdcare Standards Association) for the exceptionally fine quality of their Ultiva® SuperMix birdfood (exclusively available from Garden Bird Supplies).

Says Product Development Director Tony Milne “As founder members of the BSA we are thrilled that the exceptional quality of our premium Ultiva® bird food has been recognised by an authoritative, independent organisation. We know from customer comments how much garden birds appreciate the quality ingredients in our food such as sunflower hearts and peanut granules.”

Garden Bird Supplies offer a wide range of general and specialist bird foods from Ultiva® Original (a mix of high energy food perfect for year-round feeding) through to Bogena Harsh Weather Supplement (a complete supplement for fruit and insect eating birds such as Robins, Blackbirds, Thrushes and Wagtails).

Prices for all the food mixes are highly competitive starting from £6.99 for a 2kg bag of Four Season Table and Ground Mix. Individual food supplements are also available such as Niger Seed Thistle (fed as a tonic or to specifically attract Gold Finches) or Kibbled Maize, ideal for smaller bird species.

As well as a comprehensive collection of bird food, Garden Bird Supplies also offer a large selection of feeders, live food (such as worms), bird baths, tables and feeder accessories such as a handy Table Scraper at £6.99.

Designer nesting boxes, such as the Wren Roundhouse at £29.99 are also included as are Wildlife boxes such as a Hedgehog House (at £43.99) and the ingenuous Multi Species Camera Nest Box from £149.99 which plugs straight into a television or computer monitor for real time enjoyment of young birds.
