Wild bird food

[ginger]

Brian - yes, Albox.  Sorry I hadn't noticed you are at Urcal, so perhaps Huercal-Overa is better for you.  You could try on the market there because I think most of the stalls that sell all the dried fruits and nuts also usually have bird seed.  Otherwise, there is a good pet shop on the main road coming in from Albox - it's on the left-hand side almost opposite the garage.  We have never had any vermin problems either and hang ours off the gazebo or a palm tree.  We usually take the peanut feeders down when the young start to fledge, say early April.

Thank you ginger, I assume you are referring to Albox. We have had a bird table for about 8 years without any problems apart from ants once which was solved by putting ant powder around the base.

BEWARE:-   I had a nice bird table going on with seed, fat balls, peanuts in a holder. I then noticed RATS in convoy climbing up and taking everything, even opening the cage that held the suet block. Back and forwards they went, taking everything, I assume, to their nest. They then came in the house! I had a real problem until finally I got rid of them. Now, sorry, but I do not feed the birds!!

Bloke in Arboleas Market (in the town) used to sell it along with nuts and kids sweets. Dont feed bird peanuts this time of year if they have young as the young ones can choke on them.

"He has fat balls". That's getting a little personal ginger!

The pet shop off Avenida Lepanto, about 3 roads up from Mercadona - sorry can't remember the name.  He sells it loose.  Also has peanuts (usually already bagged) and fat balls.

Does anyone know where I can obtain wild bird food, other then Iceland?
