I have never known a bird eat a plant. What birds are eating what plants?


Hello again,

Thanks everyone for the replies.

Sorry, I should have been clearer: they eat my soft fruits and
berries. I wouldn't mind if they ate anything else, but I grow the
fruit for me, not them!

Yes, I'm sorry, I was very tired and just misunderstood what you had written.
I wasn't including fruits and vegetables in my thoughts of plants<g>.
