Honey is not suitable as it can spread diseases. Pretty much every source encourages using sugar water feeders for nz native birds during the winter make it very clear you cannot use honey
Where do you apply your stone columns? Do you think the constructability is practicable for road construction / possible Constructability in swampy, highly silt-clay characteristics with high natural moisture content? Please get in touch with us: FreiherrHelli@gmail.com . Thank you very much for your answer.
I thought refined sugar caused cancer, the concentration of that bird sugar water is shocking, wouldnt they get cancer too, Would it not be better to mix honey with water, a natural food source ??
Over a period of time it may cause cancer but seriously how long do you think that these birds live for and how tough it is for them during the winter months without a food source, Wake up and smell reality.
@@peterdale4976 They only live long enough to get it, after that it could become hereditary.. A teaspoon full of honey ( even if you need that much ) twice a week wouldn't cost an arm and a leg..
Kiwi Knowledge I was living in Omaui near Bluff and have since moved into Bluff. Once the birds know there's food they will turn up. I only feed in winter when there is little food about.
@@KahurangiSteez Tui's are not seed eaters and mostly live on nectar from flowers (and honeydew) so the sugar water is a great food supplement for them in the winter when flowers may be scarce. At breeding time they supplement their nectar diet with some insects, for the chicks I imagine, and in autumn they love berries. In winter they come for the nectar feeder we put out along with the bellbirds and silvereyes
Hi joesoleo, I make videos, I don't get involved in the politics or general running of Pegasus Town. If you have a complaint I suggest you take it up with the company or council concerned!
I'm wondering how long it will take archaeologists in 2000 years time to dig that thing up and what they will think of it! Very nice footage, keep it up John!
Hi rafromitaly, Thank you for your comments, I really appreciate feedback on my videos. I make my own music for all my videos as I don't want to violate copyright. I am in the process of putting another update together for the Pegasus project which should be posted in about 3 weeks. Thanks again for your kind comments. John
