We shouldn't but we feed the local Maggies and Mickies (african Minors to pedants
). They are our mates - eat out of our hand, and walk or fly alongside us. I reckon keeping Maggies friends before nesting season is a good idea
VERY protective buggers too - the Mickies and Maggies work together, but if a crow or Currawong come on scene, all hell breaks loose as they defend their territory. Oddly, the Cockatoos have them all bluffed and they don't even try (we feed the Cockies wild bird seeds).
