I’ve worked out that at 3 fat blocks, twice daily, I could easily get through 42 fat slabs a week. That’s alot of fat, and a lot of money, so they have to do with a fraction of that. Even so, every time I blink, the feeder is empty. It seems to be mainly the starlings feeding their squabbling lazy youngsters …
Although the food is there for the taking the starlings prefer to screech to the adults to have the stuff physically shoved down their throats …
Although, occasionally, they still manage to look cute.
The screeching and squawking comes to an abrupt halt however. Not because the fat has run out, but because the heavies arrive …
you wouldn’t want to mess with that stare.
