Nathan Fillion, a brilliant actor, coined this famously popular original phrase. "Feed the birds" is used as a way to congratulate, or give props to someone. Here is its meaning as he describes it on his Twitter page:
"This is the new High Five. It is called: FEED THE BIRDS."
Nathan Fillion, the extraordinarily talented, hot, handsome star of "Firefly", "Serenity", and "Castle", just to mention a few of the fine roles of this Emmy-winning performer, also says "Feed the birds" in his show "Castle".
Its short form is FTB
