feeding station

Wildlife food spot

A feeding station is a designated place where food is provided for animals, whether wild birds in a backyard, livestock on a farm, or wildlife in a managed habitat.

The term also applies to locations where humanitarian organizations distribute food to people during emergencies or famines.

In agricultural contexts, feeding stations may be equipped with automated dispensers that regulate portions.

We set up a feeding station to attract cardinals to the garden.
