I have been feeding birds since last October here in Northern NJ. I understand that I should continue thru the birthing season, but was wondering whether I should pause for the Summer. Feeding them is one of the tasks I use to occupy my time during the pandemic lockdown, and it is certainly no burden on me, but I wanted to ask whether dependency is something to be concerned about. Should the birds be forced to rely on the natural food sources in my yard over the Summer?
