RE: Winter feed for the birds
Adrian; I was talking about planting highbush cranberries with the old CO from the Wiarton area. He said to keep an eye on them to see if the birds are eating them. Some varieties are so bad tasting that he' s seen large patches untouched in heavily populated areas. He said that you never know if you' ve gotten edible ones (especially from the conservation authority)until you see if the wildlife uses them. But; once you' ve got a good seed/plant source you' ve got it made.
