Not enough calories to burn and then they freeze at night.


Cookies have sugar in them and sugar=calories and energy.

Both Bread and cookies are just carbohydrates that would not supply adequate calories in the winter cold.
Protein and fats are needed.



This idea only hold water if you think they're going to pass up that nights meat and vegetables because they're full on cookies. These are wild birds, not your children. Big Grin

A fav far side! We used to have crows for pets as kids. They would have a few sips of my dad’s beer and get silly. Extremely smart. I remember asking if parrots were as smart when I was gifted a conure all those years ago.
