It appears that my mockingbirds are once again on their autumn haiatus from
eating peanut butter or jelly. It is interesting to me that every year after
the breeding season is over with ALL the babies fed and dispersed, the parent
birds stop coming for these foods. They begin again as winter sets in. From
then on, I cannot keep the feeder full enough. Of course, peanut butter and
jelly consumption diminished greatly when I had megatons of wild grapes
ripening
on the vines entwined all around my deck. Birds were everywhere in those
vines eating their fill. It was almost as good as the mulberry trees I used to
have down in Florida.
By the way, has anyone else seen this metric conversion? Enjoy it!
