Darryl Jones is fascinated by bird feeders. Not the containers supplying food to our winged friends, but the people who fill the containers, scatter the crumbs or seeds, or leave the picnic scraps behind for the birds.

Here, Jones takes us on a wild flight through the history of bird feeding as he ponders this odd but seriously popular form of interaction between humans and wild animals. Jones digs at the deeper issues and questions of the practice of bird feeding, as he raises our awareness of the things we don't yet know and why we really should.

This beautifully written and engaging books reveals that what at first seems

Rating: 2.0 out of 5 stars
Title: Hard to read. Needs editing.
Date: Reviewed in the United States on February 14, 2021
Review: A exhaustive book that I gave up on half-way through. It's in need of an editor as the author repeats himself constantly. There's a subtle snobbery that shows through towards anyone not in an academia, unless you're an native American, yet he relies constantly on us poor, uneducated slobs for the data in the book. Your money is better spent on Feeding Wild Birds in America by Baicich, Barker, and Henderson.

Title: Why we feed the birds...it matters more to us
Date: Reviewed in the United States on September 8, 2018
Review: Written by an Australian so references to their birds but the world research is sound. Birders are birders, doesn't matter where you're from. Covers an abundance of research found around the world and historically concerning how and why we find it fulfilling to feed our local bird neighbors. Hint: most of the time they'd be fine without us feeding them but in some situations, our intervention is helpful.

Title: An Excellent and Important Book.
Date: Reviewed in the United States on July 29, 2018
Review: I learned a great deal about the benefits, and costs, of bird feeding, not only in the northeast of the United States, where I grew up and now live, but worldwide. I greatly appreciated the author's concise summary of many scientific studies of the effects of bird feeding and pointing out the different difficulties with carrying out these studies.

Review: Interesting, but occasionally tedious

Feeding birds has been one of my guilty pleasures for many years. Along the way I have befriended numerous hummingbirds, countless crows, and an entire family of jays. So I was interested to read a little “serious science” behind what had always been a hobby.

=== The Good Stuff ===

* Darryl Jones looks at the big picture of bird feeding. Does feeding really make any difference to a species? Does it change the species mix of an area? What percentage of a wild bird’s food will it accept from human sources, and does this do the bird, or its species, any harm? Jones takes a shot at answering all these questions.

* Jones uses historical data to give some perspective on the state of wild birds. For example, many species showing up at times and places where they have not been typically been seen. There can be any number of reasons for this, ranging from climate change to changing landscapes and human behaviors. The author explores all of these in some detail.

=== The Not-So-Good Stuff ===

* The book got a bit repetitive. Jones takes the reader through numerous discussions of how difficult it is to do statistical studies on birds. To be honest, after the third or fourth mention of it, I was more than ready to concede the point.

* The author occasionally present facts but leaves the reader to his own devices to interpret these. For example, Jones informs us that in 2007, the United States imported enough birdseed to fill 22000 railway hopper cars. But what does that mean? If I think of how many natural seeds there are in the continental US during a typical year, is 22,000 railway cars a significant quantity or not?

* Finally, while the author presents many valid and interesting questions, he leaves the reader short on answers. At the end of the book, I had no idea whether feeding birds was a good idea or not. I appreciate the complexity of the question, and that it resists a simple and definitive answer. But yet the author seems infinitely more qualified that I do to offer an opinion

=== Summary===

While I found the topic interesting, the text got a bit repetitive and off-topic. As a technical professional, I know how complicated statistics can be when applied to somewhat unstructured problems, but I really wasn’t interested in multiple discussions of the topic. Conversely, when the author stayed on topic, the book was full of interesting and thought provoking observations and postulations on this relatively simple hobby.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for an advance galley of this book.

Title: The birds at my table
Date: Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2018
Review: Over a million tons of seed are sold globally each year to feed wild birds, much of it grown in Africa and India, the author tells us. His own bird table is near Brisbane, Australia, but birds are fed in many countries. He explains that planting shrubs to provide sufficient nectar instead, just attracts aggressive honey eating noisy miners, which chase off all smaller birds, much as magpies here in Ireland are a terror. Then he describes his rainbow lorikeets, which eat seeds and pollen, and Australian magpies, actually a butcher bird, which eat insects from the lawn. So if birds can be lured with foods they would not find in the wild, does it follow that the foods - those humans do not want, often - are harmful to birds?

I enjoyed the urban ecology study the author carried out looking at native and introduced birds, and the attitudes humans took to them. Scientists were stunned by how many people around Australia fed birds. Both posted and online surveys are voluntarily filled nowadays, and we learn about survey results in UK, New Zealand and America. And when the author investigates the history and spread of such feeding he finds, 3,500 years ago, a Hindu text calls feeding wild birds a sacrifice which removes negative karma. Excellent!

From there we look at progress through the ages in feeding, documenting, providing nest sites and feeders. Having seen the experimention and production to create good mixes, we look at Poland, where people hang out lumps of fat, and ask whether to feed during winter or all year. Did the birds feed nestlings on feeder seeds? According to a detailed study of bluetits by Chris Mead, the adult birds fed insects to nestlings. Later we learn the same of magpies and Australian magpies. The adults may have gained enough energy from feeder offerings to keep searching longer for insects and raise more chicks.

The blackcap survey is mentioned; German birds are dividing into those which overwinter in southerly lands and those which overwinter in UK. The UK birds eat from feeders and return two weeks earlier, getting a head start over their fellows. Not mentioned is that blackcaps like mistletoe berries and where they are spotted often overlaps with the distribution of mistletoe, meaning that the birds are spreading the seeds onto suitable host trees. And I enjoyed the tale of folks in Reading, England, feeding huge red kites. I've had sparrowhawks and herons in my garden.

We learn about Susan Smith feeding small birds in her Massachussets garden; she came up with the concept of colour-banding their legs, so she could identify individuals. Now commonplace in studies, this 1960s idea started with Professor Smith's thirty years of studies. Over American harsh winters, it turned out that fed birds survived much better than non-fed ones. The most detailed study is the kakapo or New Zealand flightless parrot. When the birds had to be moved to islands for their survival, as rats took their eggs, they needed supplementary feeding in order to breed, which they had previously done in accordance with good mast years (nut fruits of local pines) so conservators fed them a wide variety and observed the results. Then we move to feeding red kites in Wales (at Gigrin Farm) and England to reintroduce them. The author moves on to study the people doing the feeding and asks what we get out of it and if it helps stabilise bird populations.

Notes and references P307 -338 in my e-ARC. I found four names which I could be sure were female, but most references are by initials. Overall this is a lovely book with great depth of research, but as the word 'study' is the most common word I noticed, this is not for the garden bird watcher but for the keen ornithologist or ecologist. Students in these fields will find a wealth of experience and ideas; we are often told that more such studies need to be carried out. As most birds enjoy trees and shrubs, and eat and spread the seeds, botanists and gardeners will also find it valuable. My ARC had no photos which is a crying shame, and the paragraphs are long and typed small, so consider this a study book rather than casual reading; but if you just dip into the contents you will certainly find something of interest to bird lovers on any page.

I downloaded an e-ARC from Net Galley. This is an unbiased review.
