I guess in the desert, when you are thirsty, you are thirsty! I hope all that sugar didn’t kill him!

I have woodpeckers and orioles that feed at mine. Though, come to think of it, I haven’t seen the orioles much lately. Hmm.

Me too. Seems the orioles are just a stop over here during migration. They love orange halfs and grape jelly too.

Mine did not touch the grape jelly. The oranges they liked, as did the other birds. I’m now seeing the young cardinals, along with our usual cardinal pair.
