Message Subject Any bird feeders in the house? Virtue-signaling liberal neighbor sent me a link.
Poster Handle YoYoM
Post Content
Woke up to a text from a neighbor with a link that explains why I should remove my bird feeder.

[link to www.webmd.com (secure)]

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.

I'd respond to your neighbor with this quote from the article: "Christopher Sharp, a population management biologist with the Canadian Wildlife Service in Ontario, said he’s not urging people to take down their bird feeders yet but encouraged them to take precautions.

People should also clean their feeders more frequently, he told Poultry Producer, an online resource for the global poultry industry."

Ask them if they even read the article and then explain how not even the biologist in the article is recommending taking the feeders down. Ask them if they've cleaned their feeder (which is what they are recommending in this article).
