However, non-resident birds may become dependent on this food source and be at risk of competition and disease if induced to stay in an area where there is little natural food. Resident and breeding birds are at risk of nutritional deficiency if the food offered does not contain all essential nutrients they require. Be aware that birds will source the readily available “hand-outs” at the expense of their natural diet and may be at an increased risk of disease transmission at crowded or unhygienic feed stations. Do not overfeed wild birds.
