Default Sparrows Devouring Lettuce Plants!

In article d0076fa9.0302241235.410cf628

I found several
Rufous-crowned Sparrows devouring my lettuce plants this morning. I
had no idea the birds were herbacious! Fruits and nuts, sure. But
lettuce?


We were warned not to feed our Quaker rommaine lettuce
for it would cause it diarrhea. Not sure if it would
react to other lettuce so never chanced it. If other
types of birds are similarly effected to lettuce, maybe
you have the last word by giving them a case of
"Fleemo's revenge"
