Is feeding Garden Birds worth it ?

Post by Richard »

You've done everything you can do,
you've built them nest houses,
spent a small fortune feeding them,
done everything to protect them......

Oh dear

I believe that bird poo is a good fertilizer. Maybe you will see some new growth sprouting, a lot cheaper than visiting Harley Street for a transplant.

I use buckets and buckets of water (from the water butts) to swill and brush away pigeon,duck and goose poo from our concrete area, and have to treat carefully on the garden, as there are great blobs of it at this time of year.

Wear a hat, Richard!
