The temperature dropped to the low 70s. I think that made birds hungry because there were plenty of them. A pine warbler liked the rehydrated mealworms. A downy woodpecker preferred soggy barkbutter balls. Several titmice were willing to eat anything. The cardinals felt the same.
A chickadee and a Carolina wren landed on the barkbutter ball dish at the same time and managed briefly to share. A female bluebird looked weather-beaten but she may have been just molting. A red bellied woodpecker also settled for barkbutter mush.
