I seldom throw bread out because I do not use that much bread, but like pita bread that I did not eat, old rolls I throw out for the birds, groundhog (if he eats it), or whoever wants it....the chickens love the chase each other with bigger chunks of it in their mouths. It is like a game for them. The groundhog usually eats the bird seed, not the bread. The flock of starlings and other bigger birds usually cleans up the bread before anyone gets to it. I have had the groundhog, when he/she was smaller climb the fence and eat out of the one bird feeder. I had to move it because he spilled more than he ate.
