I love the birds here. I would have loved to feed them so I could see them close at hand. It is allowed. Most places it has to be under your eaves.


HOWEVER, I have learned not only from reading this forum but from people who are veteran Florida residents that feeding birds attracts other not lovely critters like snakes and palm rats. Also a goodly share of the same people do not have palm trees planted because of the Palmetto bugs and other crawleys.


The folks who also have lived here for a good while say that the birds have enough natural food to sustain them.


But you certainly may.
