The last sentence sums it up “And that is why many of us feed animals — not merely because it’s satisfying to feel we have helped them, but because it surrounds us with creatures that know us, are able to forge bonds with us, have come to regard us as part of their world.” See http://www.nytimes.com/2016/01/10/magazine/why-do-we-feed-wild-animals.html

    Can anyone tell me if disease transmission at bird feeders is as much of a problem in the USA and UK as it is here?
