Raw Almonds for Squirrels & Wild Birds

Raw almonds are a highly nutritious, energy-dense food loved by squirrels, jays, woodpeckers, and many other garden birds. Naturally rich in healthy fats, plant-based protein, calcium, and vitamin E, almonds help wildlife maintain strength, condition, and energy throughout the year.

Perfect for garden feeding stations, woodland edges, or dedicated squirrel feeders, almonds provide long-lasting fuel — especially during colder months when natural food sources are limited.

Why Feed Almonds to Wildlife?

• High Energy Content – Healthy natural fats support winter survival and daily activity.
• Rich in Protein – Helps maintain muscle strength and overall condition.
• Source of Calcium – Supports strong bones and beak health.
• Vitamin E – Contributes to immune support and healthy skin and feathers.
• Natural & Unprocessed – No additives, flavourings, or preservatives.

Suitable For

Almonds are especially popular with:

• Squirrels (grey and red)
• Jays
• Woodpeckers
• Crows and magpies
• Larger garden birds

How to Feed Almonds Safely

Always offer raw, unsalted almonds. Never provide roasted, salted, or flavoured nuts, as these can be harmful to wildlife.

• Provide whole almonds in shell for squirrels to encourage natural gnawing behaviour.
• Offer shelled or chopped almonds for smaller garden birds.
• Use a squirrel feeder, nut feeder, or scatter sparingly on a feeding table.

Feeding whole nuts in shell encourages natural foraging, promotes dental health in squirrels, and provides valuable mental stimulation.

Year-Round Wildlife Support

Almonds are particularly beneficial during:

• Winter, when natural nuts and seeds are scarce
• Breeding season, when energy demands increase
• Autumn, as wildlife prepares for colder months

For best results, offer almonds as part of a balanced wildlife feeding mix alongside seeds, peanuts, and other natural foods.

Natural Nutrition for a Thriving Garden

By offering premium raw almonds, you provide a simple yet powerful way to support local wildlife. Whether attracting squirrels to a dedicated feeder or encouraging jays and woodpeckers to visit your garden, almonds deliver reliable, nutrient-rich feeding all year round.
