Composed by Richard M. Sherman and Robert B. Sherman. Arranged by Matt Nabozny. Broadway,Film/TV,Musical/Show. Score and Parts. 38 pages. Matthew Nabozny LLC #831745. Published by Matthew Nabozny LLC (A0.1236233).Feed the Birds is a song written by the Sherman Brothers (Richard M. Sherman & Robert B. Sherman) and featured in the 1964 motion picture Mary Poppins. The song speaks of an old beggar woman (the "Bird Woman") who sits on the steps of St Paul's Cathedral, selling bags of breadcrumbs to passers-by for two pence a bag (equivalent to about 13p in 2022) so that they can feed the many pigeons which surround the old woman. The scene is reminiscent of the real-life seed vendors of Trafalgar Square who began selling birdseed to passers-by shortly after its public opening in 1844.
