Seeds aren't just for sparrows

We all love birds.

Whether they are in the garden on their own.





Gannets diving into the sea.



Majestic Golden eagles killing fluffy bunnies



or starlings murmurating by the million

Obviously, eagles and gannets are known carnivores, however many birds such as sparrows, finches, robins, blackbirds and most garden birds mainly feed on seeds and nuts.


There is a reason for this, as seeds and nuts are so full of goodness and natural energy, and contrary to popular belief, are not bad for you. (unless you are allergic).

THINK ABOUT IT....When did you last see a fat sparrow?


Here is some information about some of the best, that can go to make your smoothie delicious.
