Re: Why.......

Did hear an interview with a lady from the RSPB the other week, wish I could remember everything she said. Bread was the big no, no though as would just blow them up. She did say that, if you do, especially when the young ones are hatched, to throw out very small portions, as they obviously can't cope with large lumps. Also, stuck in mind was the fact that if you throw food out in the morning and still there at lunch, only the rats will finish up eating this.

Remember she suggested Weetabix was a good food for them and seed mixes. After all the RSBP do have an online shopping site themselves to buy bird trays, etc., linked with good advice.

Get annoyed when I see people feeding the ducks, they don't need it .. plenty of food in the water for them.
