The sun shone but the wind was fierce. It had switched around to the WSW so the creek was not high, but it was rough. I was busy all morning so I didn't get fresh jelly and barkbutter balls out till afternoon. Rainwater had filled the dishes.
At our late lunch, a mockingbird hunted for food on the ground. A mixed flock of warblers defied the wind to get suet. Orioles noticed the jelly right away and bluebirds came for the barkbutter balls. A bluebird drank from the puddle on the pool cover, as though there wasn't fresh water in the birdbath and the ant moat. Is that like dogs and drinking from the toilet?
