When was the last time you fed a wild animal?

These are New Forest ponies I fed carrots to last week

When I leave home in the morning the first thing i do is to feed the birds in my garden.I love seeing them fly I in front of me,knowing what I have for them.And I continue feeding the birds,especially crows,wherever I go from that point,until I get home again.

@pedrohedgerow I always feed the birds too. Crows are very intelligent animals.

@Travelbug Absolute truth!I have gained a little trust from them,and that is priceless to me.

@pedrohedgerow they do recognise you for sure. When you put food down too, they are clever enough to peck up lots, unlike other birds who take a little and when they return it's all gone.

I carry cocktail sausages which I give only to the crows.Some crows ignore the bread I put down and buzz me for the sausages! 🙂

@pedrohedgerow they probably look at me and say "here comes that miserable woman with the reduced bread again". The robin likes meat or worms, but if he's starving he'll eat the multigrain bread.
