Shopping for local grown food is a really beneficial thing to do for all concerned. Ever try netting for your fruit trees? I don't mind sharing with birds either as long as they don't get piggy about it.

We net the small trees and grapes. Our trees are getting large and I am getting lazy in my old age. I would think the 100 lbs of bird seed a month and a gallon of sugar water a day for the hummers and Orioles would be enough. We enjoy the birds. I really like the quail that come past my office twice a day.

I found that once you start feeding the birds they will eat an enormous amount of seed. Not that I mind. I like 'em around, too---they can be a bit messy though.
