Nature Fact
Blackberries: The main consumers of bramble berries are Marsh and Willow Tits, Bullfinches, Blackbirds and Song Thrushes. Among mammals, Foxes, Badgers and even Squirrels and Deer are fond of bramble berries. The berries are sought for their energy-rich pulp, while the seeds within pass undigested through the gut and are conveniently deposited in a ‘ready-grow’ package of manure.
