Default Poisoning snails - poisoning birds?

I have to use slug pellets at plant times and other times as well, but only
when and where I have to.
We have a very healthy bird population which is increasing every year and
this spring we have 2 song thrushes singing their heads off about 18 hours a
day.
We also have foxes, badgers, hedgehogs, frogs and toads, and still get heavy
flushes of slugs and snails.
