It is necessary to feed the local nesting currawong pair to prevent them taking the frogmouth chicks over the back fence.  The frogmouths are in favour of this strategy.  The bowerbirds are capable of resisting the currawong advances towards the morning handful of grapes.  The peafowl are something else.  Grape dispensing does not occur if peafowl are about.
