I turned 70 back in November and my old eyes are not like they used to be. It appears that with the unseasonably warm weather here in the latter part of January, (upper70s!
) some of my bird feeders have developed a large fungal growth.
I wasn't certain what this was, my eyes were not focusing just right, so I asked for help from Otis....we all know that Otis knows everything and is never wrong.
He identified it as a fast growing fungus, but refused to identify the particular type of fungus, for reasons unknown?
When I go out to clean the feeder, it seems to disappear, and if I refill the feeder, in no time it appears again...very baffling? Any of you guys have any ideas of what type of fungus this may be? It is devouring my bird seed like crazy and I can't afford to keep stocking these feeders...as I'm saving for some new glasses.
Regards!
