[Man From Ironbark]

Birds have to eat and a lot of birds eat flowers. They contain nectar and pollen, both foods that birds bees ants and lizards might want to eat.
I don't blame any for doing what comes natural. The caging is so that I get some flowers to look at and hopefully to produce seed.
It isn't just the choughs, though they are capable of major damage. It is also the apostle birds, the crested pigeons and the various small parrots like the ring necked parrots and the red rumps.

I do grow flowers for the local species to eat. Food is everything about restoring the bird and insect numbers.

I used to have the agility of a mountain goat but these days, I'm a bit wobbly in the old pins.

Love Don's video. Is the soundtrack yourself, Don?

Crested pigeions eat most of the seed I plant.
