There is, however,
responsibility associated with bird feeding,
including a disease hazard.
Attracting numbers of birds continually
to the same spot can be harmful to them,
particularly species that pick food from the ground

Once begun,
feeding should never stop during these lean months.
If you start a local increase of birds,
be prepared to do what may be required to eliminate hazards
to those you want to befriend.
A constant supply of food should be given

If feeding is stopped during severe weather,
birds used to relying upon the feeders might starve.
