Healthy bird food
« on: October 22, 2019, 11:25:39 AM »
There has been some stuff in the news lately about how bread is bad for birds. Advice from experts is to offer them peas, sweetcorn and the like.  Healthy  :thumbsup:

I bake my own bread and chuck out crusts for the birds. The garden is besieged by birds in a feeding frenzy  :thumbsup:

I bought a bag of peas the other day and put a load on my bird table. They remain untouched.

These birds need to be told what is good for them!

You need to take them out of the bag first...  whistle:

Given your past escapades I wouldn't have been surprised if you had just left the bag on the bird table...  noooo:
