Birds play an important role in maintaining the balance of our ecosystem. Feeding them, especially in urban areas where natural food sources are limited, helps keep them healthy and supports local biodiversity. The Create DIY Bird Feeders at Home challenge encourages participants to make simple, safe, and eco-friendly bird feeders and place them in their homes, gardens, or balconies to attract and nourish birds.

Through karmas.in, you can share your creations, inspire others to care for local wildlife, and contribute to building a community of animal lovers.

Why This Cause Is Important

Urbanization often reduces access to natural food for birds. Providing bird feeders:

Helps birds find a reliable food source
Supports local wildlife and biodiversity
Encourages children and families to connect with nature
Promotes eco-friendly practices using recycled materials

Even a small feeder can make a big difference for birds in your area.

Once you have created and set up your bird feeder, share your work on karmas.in to inspire others.

Submit Proof of Completion
Take 1–3 photos of your bird feeder in use or during setup.
Write a short description including:
the type of feeder you made
where you placed it
what birds you observed visiting

Sharing your experience encourages others to participate and helps build a culture of kindness toward local wildlife.
