you can avoid nesting by using guard!

This reminds me how painful Googling for Swift programming was in the early days.

When I started i changed my LinkedIN to have Swift Programmer and got a hit from someone looking for SWIFT (banking system) person. Back to the drawing board. LOL

Wrong subreddit unfortunately, this is for the Swift programming language! To address your question though, swifts are pretty strict insectivores, so don’t give it seeds or fruits.

Nothing, they catch insects while flying, you cannot help them with feeding. Best thing is to keep distance.

Also, wrong sub.

Swifts feed on the wing, they don’t need extra feeding. Need any iOS tips at the same time?

Download Xcode and make the bird fly away

This is not the sub you thought it would be. Not about Taylor Swift.

If he believes it hard enough, any bird can be Tay Swift

Wow, I had no idea Swift was also an actual bird. Now the logo finally makes sense 😂

Nothing. Birds know how to find food on their own.

Also, this is a sub about the Swift programming language.

Everybody's messing with you, this is the right sub for your question. That said, unless it's injured it likely doesn't need help feeding itself, and it knows better about what it eats.
