I left the tiny piece of the tomato that something ate the last two days, or nights, and I just happened to be sitting out in the shade an hour or so ago, when along came a mockingbird and went straight to that little piece of tomato. I know we used to have mockingbirds and blue jays that severely damaged fruit crops (such as our plums, pears, peaches, and apples), but I never heard of either one eating tomatoes before.
When I was a kid, everyone, including us, shot every mockingbird and blue jay we could because they were so destructive, but now they're protected by law.
