Default Do you feed the birds in your garden?

Be it bread, seed or balls etc.

We have loads of Carrion crows (they crack me up, they’re so funny), sparrows and robins around by us so we often put out seeds and balls for them. Occasionally we’ll throw out bread crusts if stale, but not too often as it’s not the best thing for them.

…Robins are the funniest, they take no nonsense from even the much bigger birds and it’s most definitely THEIR garden that they’re just allowing us the use of…I love how whenever you’re doing anything, they’ll sit there watching it and checking it all out to make sure they approve any changes…

I love spotting a cheeky robin in the summer. Always fills me with glee.

Yes we feed them everyday, have a birdtable for them. It's lovely to watch them from the kitchen window.

I have a robin who comes into the garden whenever I'm out there....it is so brave and cheeky. I always think it's my mum coming to visit

I used to feed the birds but the cheeky grey squirrels used to pinch it all....plus they were stripping the bark off my trees where I hung the fat balls.
