Did you have bird feeders at your previous home / state? Was your yard or home infested with snakes, rats, mice, bugs, etc because you hung a bird feeder? Or did you simply enjoy watching the various birds n squirrels at them?
People enjoy issuing dire warnings that rarely happen anywhere, including here.
Think about it
At our northern home, besides birds and squirrels we get raccoons, chipmunks, hawks and owls preying on the birds, and the occasional bear. The bears are the biggest problem.
