Sacha, most households in this country put NOTHING out for birds EVER,
so we feel we are doing quite a bit by providing for roughly 7 months of
the year. Added to this is the fact that we are living in verdant
sparsely-populated countryside which is blessed with abundant natural
food sources. And added to that is the fact that most of those who have
chosen to live in this "Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty" adore birds
and so there is always a good number of households putting out
take-aways for the birdies! Believe me, they ain't going wanting round
here! :-)
