Not bad first shots at birding. Don't feed them bread though it's not good for them, sunflower seeds and peanuts are better, or pick up some wild bird seed from your local Wilkos. They will then become your friends and easier to shoot.

...and can I also add mealworms to that list.

Hi They also like suet bars and fat balls, sometimes the starlings argue over the suet bar (they like it that much )
