Thanks for that info. on the catbirds liking grape jelly & also the berries. Ah, now I know why I haven't seen them --- we were too late moving in here. If they are only winter visitors to Lin's & we are north of her by about 100 miles so they would only be winter visitors here. Well, I will be looking for them this winter then.
Speaking of birds loving berries ---- I saw a mocker hanging around my blueberries today & suspected he was up to something. Sure 'nuff; I went to check them just now & there had been 2 honking big berries I checked yesterday that weren't quite ripe & I figured today was the day. Yep, the day the mocker got to them before I did. lesson learned. I really don't mind sharing with the birds but I hate them getting my first two! Drat.
