A similar but much smaller debate on baiting birds arises now on dchome.net. May I quote a message post there and ask those who know Taiwan to comment on the representation?
"...就說台灣，鳥友長期餵飼，鳥種和數量有增無減。所以你所說的"對鳥類獵食能力有影響"，我應為不成立。"
I took the liberty of quoting this thread on dchome.net with the hope that issue of this kind should be widely debated.
I hereby declare my position. I have never fed nor would I feed birds for photography though I have never contemplated on the issue. I fed birds for times to enjoy being surrounded by them. At the moment, I do not judge those who baited them for photography and I remind myself to keep an open mind.
