After reading this question I too was prompted to have a spin around the Internet - my conclusion is there's (surprise - not !) a whole lot of nonsense out there with a lot of 'bird' sites simply listing any plant that's recorded as toxic to humans. Here's one link though to someone who knows what they are writing about, on balance as long as the food isn't hidden in some mixture which diguises it, one can pretty much leave wild birds to make their own choices.
