Usually to keep a bird healthy via Bird Feeder, you need to keep the Bird Feeder clean, so it doesn't spread disease and germs that can effect other birds with a crippling, or deadly illness. Bird Feeding does have its benefits, but when put in good work, you can help birds out more than the usual human would think.

Pros:

- Bird Feeding lets you keep birds healthy.
- You can see birds gather in your garden/backyard.
- You can possibly see Bird Families grow up.

Cons:

- You have to keep up the quality of the bird feeders.
- You can make the birds sickly if not taken care of properly.
- You have to purchase Bird Feed, which isn't cheap.

- The birds will start to depend on you. If you don't take care of them properly, they might die because you didn't take care of them and they depend on you for they're food source.
Just like any pet, Birds can depend on humans just  as easily as cats  and dogs. If they're not taken care of properly, they can die wanting your help.

Mainly, the benefits to a Bird Feeder are that you get to see more birds in your own backyard, and see families grow as one thanks to you. It's also great if you're a bird watcher that likes to mark down different species of bird you see.
It truly depends on the bird feeder you buy, the shape, structure,  durability, etc etc. The bird feed is also required to provide the birds with the proper nutrition needed to survive in your outside home.

Birds are also what keeps farmers in business. They prevent erosion, spread of disease, and can get rid of harmful bugs and small creatures from the environment. Birds help us plenty when they spread their wings and fly into our blue skies.

Birds also help the industry and economy grow with their often attracting if tourists to rural areas and/or parks. They also clean up our roads from “Roadkill” so we don’t have to clean the now dead creature lying there on the road. They get a nice, plentiful meal from it, while we wouldn’t benefit from a carcass at all.

Much likes bees, Birds can spread both Pollen and
Seeds to help our nature grow to even better heights. When they fly, sometimes seeds will drop off of their bodies from the wind pushing them off of their feathers, then the seeds to proceed to plant themselves, and grow into certain plants.

Birds can also provide transport for us, one known bird is named the Carrier Pigeon. In olden times, usually during war, Humans used the Carrier Pigeon to transport letters between one another. They held the letter hanging from a string attached to a letter hanging loosely from their necks. They would also use a little pack with the letter inside that hung on their backs like a backpack we use today.
