Starlings are hammering my suet cakes...they'll be next on the list, but they're wily. One flies in some day, then returns with the flock the following day. They will clean out a cake in a couple days which would typically last me two months.
HOSP can't crack the shell of black oils, but some of my preferred birds don't like it, either. It's certainly a tradeoff, unless I can thin this recent herd somewhat. Good tips Brook! Thanks.
