What a Difference a Day Can Make

Several years ago I planted a female Possum Haw bush near our back driveway and for the past few years it has had a good display of red berries from let fall until late spring.




One morning last month, as I left to run a few errands, I admired the bush and wondered how long the berries would hang on.

Later that afternoon, when I went out for the local newspaper, I was surprised to see the bush completely naked of berries.





It appears that a flock of hungry birds had devoured the complete crop.

Maybe next year I'll be able to get a photo of the little creatures.
