Hi Kay

The answer is:

My birds probably, they like the butterflies (and their offspring). It's kind of an holistic approach and hard to be species specific. What benefits one, often benefits many. There is a lot of evidence that many species benefit from the odd nettle patch and some are totally dependant on them.

Some birds are very fond of the seeds as well.

Regards
Colin
