If you want to feed the wild life...put a bird feeder with plenty of food for all kinds of birds (even a bird house or two)... esp during the winter months where they have a harder time finding food to keep themselves warm. Squirrels will enjoy too, sometimes I put peanuts down for them, that is in the shell. Keep in mind they WILL start to rely on YOU as a food source, but a bird feeder and bird bath is perfect. As for ducks, no bread, don't feed, there is plenty of food out there for them as other wild life. They should not get tooooo friendly with people, its not good for them.
