This summer, when a rainbow lorikeet or kookaburra comes to visit your home, what will
you do? Will you offer
them a slice of apple, or simply watch until they take flight?
It brings many people joy to provide food and water for birds, to encourage them to stay a
while and be given the
chance to observe them more closely.
But some people are reluctant to interact with birds
in this way because
they’re worried it might damage the birds’ health.
In contrast with other countries, little research has been done on the effects of feeding
birds in Australia.
As a
result, there are no established guidelines around how to feed and provide water for local
birds.
