Guest: Sherrie Verslius of Preferred Perch

Sherrie Versluis, the owner of the Preferred Perch in Winnipeg, speaks about backyard birds, what they eat, how they survive winter, and how you can keep them singing in your own backyard. Bit of advice? Don’t feed them bacon fat in place of suet and watch the type of feed you are providing. Some of it can be contaminated. In fact, if your birds are turning up their beaks at your offerings, chances are it could be mouldy seed or worse. . .
