Im going to guess that you dont enjoy feeding and watching the birds or like when they sing in the spring and summer.

One winter, I saw a bird scratching around trying to find food in the snow. I felt sorry for it, so bought a bird feeder. Over the next few years, I kept putting up bird feeders--until I realized that my yard had far more birds (and guano) than was natural. Feeding them is like giving out welfare handouts--it does not really help them, it makes them dependent on handouts, and there is no end of takers. So I stopped feeding them.
