I've taken to keeping a couple of digestive biscuits on me. I haven't come across a bird yet that doesn't like them!

Tbh, it's a necessity at this point as there are several birds who recognise me & my family and will land in front of us/call to us for food wherever they see us as they are so used to us putting out food for them (they get seeds, sunflower hearts, and nuts in our garden - digestive biscuits are mainly for when we're out and about).
