Protecting Our Wildlife

Hello everyone! I hope you’re all enjoying the long weekend. I’m writing this from home, not at the office in Wantirna Knox. As you can see, I’ve titled this blog Protecting Our Wildlife. Wildlife means the everyday birds you hear in the morning, the possums you hear at night, and any other animals around your property.

Here’s what I do to help: I leave out water in the backyard for the birds. However, I don’t feed them because I’ve read that doing so can make them dependent on you. I’ve also learned that the sugar and salt in bread are not good for their diet. Interestingly, feeding birds doesn’t assist with egg production either. That’s why I simply put out a bowl of water.


Another thing to keep in mind is not to feed the possums either, as they might come to rely on your food.


I hope you’ve enjoyed my blog! Have a great long weekend.
