Elderberries

[Wiley]

anyone know much about them and how to use them with the pigeons?

[OLDYELLOW]

really good full of vitamins and antioxidants if you collect a load before wild birds get them juice them and freeze them in freezer ice bags then add a couple to water each week my trees are just starting to ripen I hope to get a few frozen fer next year another friend juices them and adds a bottle of cider vinegar to them

i've heard to put table spoon of frozen elderberies to a litre to warm water and a clove of garlic, then blend. however what is the best use of it and what are the benefits as the wild birds go made for them?

[OLDYELLOW]

As said it's a great source of vitamins and helps support the birds immune system , as you say wild birds love it

Read the same in the BHW/RP (cant remember which) last week, somebody's tip for the week

If you read Elderberrys contain small amounts of cyanide poisonous to us but harmless to the birds in small quantity's , I believe i read that a popular cancer cure was bracken roots boiled for use in treating canker , this also a source of cyanide is the bracken plant , the old ways of treating always seems to spring back to mind as there usually something in the old ways

Aye, I've been telling you for a while Paul. If you want some for free give Fergie a ring he has some trees, that's if the wee birds haven't had them all away. The article in the BHW last week was the Irish fellow Dennis McDermott.
