Peanuts for Birds
"Peter Stockdale" wrote in message ... : Following on from Paul England's posting : : I have three mesh nut feeders and "my" birds contrive to consume about 12ft : x : 2 inch per week on average most of the year. No chance of dampness : problems!! : Am I correct in assuming that no harm to fledglings etc. will be done : provided the nuts are not dispensed whole, or : should we stop all nut availabilty during nesting? : -- : Peter Stockdale : Nanneys Bridge Nursery - Cheshire : I understand that modern thinking is that if the nuts are in mesh feeders, the parents cannot take a whole nut and therefore the bits they feed to the fledglings are OK. A squirrel has just managed to chew through the wire mesh of one of our brand new indestructible-squirrel-proof feeders :O(( K |
