No just great chunks of bread, but her table is more in the open than my
feeding stations, so the birds have a better chance of swooping in to get
the feeds.
We are about 200 yards from the sea.

Cheers...the difference between the two was quite interesting


even more when you consider that our gardens are only about 20 feet wide and
that her bird table is about 15 feet from ours!!!!!
