A very hot day. I refused to refill the suet cages till sundown. The package says "no melt" but the contents were soft. Meanwhile, birds kept checking just in case I'd relented. A brown thrasher managed to get by on crumbs and barkbutter powder. A cardinal tried some, or maybe he was looking for a present for his lady love? Starlings just gave up. The bluebirds couldn't afford to be picky with a family to feed. The male pileated woodpecker hunted all over the post as though the suet might be hiding. He ate some crumbs then gave me a piece of his mind. When I finally did refill the feeders, a couple of geese honked as they floated away.
