Hello,
For the last couple of days I have been waghing the greenfinches coming to my garden. One definitely looked sick and after he came, I washed everything.
The first one i saw sick was actually quite lethargic and looked big. The other one are not lethargic at all but looked different. I have attached few pics, sorry if they are not great, I was quite far.
What do you think?
Thank you.

As I said, I don't feed them intentionally. I have differents plants in the garden that they feed on.
The article is not about not feeding wild garden birds in summer. The article is about how it is a myth that wild garden birds shouldn’t be fed by humans putting out food in summer. As it’s quite safe to feed wild garden birds 12 months of the year including Spring and Summer. Article from 2011 and from the RSPB. It’s up to anyone to do what they wish about feeding wild birds in Spring and Summer.
