[quote:Anonymous Coward 82903377:MV81MTE0MzUwXzkzODE1NzcwX0EwQzExNTJC] [quote:Anonymous Coward 80368846:MV81MTE0MzUwXzI3RjUyOEJC] Woke up to a text from a neighbor with a link that explains why I should remove my bird feeder. https://www.webmd.com/a-to-z-guides/news/20220415/take-down-bird-feeders-bird-flu I was going to send a snarky response but figured Id give it some thought before I reply. I have no plans to take down my feeder, any animals that come to my yard are getting fed. Superspreader event or not. I refuse to live in fear over the perpetual sky-is-falling panic the media creates. Just curious how some of you would respond to the text, or if you would reply at all? I have a decent relationship with my neighbor and don't want to strain it, however, I do not appreciate people making suggestions on how I should live. How would you handle it? I'll be back to read responses but won't be around to baby sit this thread, I'm commuting to work now but interested to hear ideas on how you would handle the matter. My feeders are locked and loaded with seed and suet waiting for my feathered friends. [/quote] DONT take down the feeders, many species would not be here if it were not for people and organizations committing to helping these creatures out, we took their habitats; the least the human race can do is substitute their food supply. No they are saying stop that, a lot of work conservationist have done can be seriously harmed buy some twat in an office thinking of new news stories they can come up with. They have a responsibility in their position to help the world, not shit like this which can do nothing but harm nature. How many will listen to this BS and act on it, one would be too many. Shit like this sickens me. After I finish work tonight I am now going to find the author and shame them on all nature sites and conservation sites then after a few days email all the links so they can read the comments. I am also going to complain to the site that’s listed the story and request fact checkers remove it, I suggest everyone else does the same. [/quote]
