It is therefore likely that the behaviour shown at this feeder (i.e. high total feeding times with low numbers of long feeding bouts, high coefficients of synchrony and association, and low levels of aggression) is optimal with respect to the birds' welfare, and being such can be used as a welfare standard against which the birds' behaviour at the other feeders can be compared.
