Frozen solid. That’s been the status of our unheated bird bath all week. So I’m topping off our heated bird bath at least a couple times a day.
We’ve had more customers than usual at the heated bird bath. Liquid water is at a premium during this cold snap.
I’m sure the miscreant who stole my suet cage is among the drinkers. That’s okay. I know the little tree rat wasn’t tormenting me on purpose.
By the way, our local Home Depot was sold out of suet cages when Iggy visited this week. Maybe there has been a rash of thefts.
We love the suet thieves too - and in fact we notice their peaceful demeanor at the bird feeder on a daily basis now. Deceptively innocent, perhaps? But still a joy.
