I REFER to the article in The Citizen (Nov 16) entitled "Super rats: It's a myth".

The last paragraph of this article read, "don't feed birds by leaving food in your garden".

I agree wholeheartedly. It's certainly no way to feed a bird. I always fed them in the time honoured tradition and it can be one of life's more rewarding experiences.

I usually book a table for two in a quiet out-of-town restaurant, accompanied by a good wine. As I said, it can be a very rewarding experience.
