[Mnbird] Starlings and suet

  From Mary Oliver’s poem “Invitation”: “…it is a serious thing just to be alive on this fresh morning in this broken world. I beg of you, do not walk by without pausing to attend this rather ridiculous performance…”
    A birdie with a yellow bill hopped upon my suet feeder. There are days when starlings dominate the suet feeder. They feed with gusto. There are starling-resistant suet feeders. I purchased an upside-down suet feeder meant to challenge starlings, but the starlings hang upside down and feed. No worries. It’s going to the gym and eating lunch for a starling. The rather ridiculous performance was all on my end.
