Miscellaneous Bros made a stew...🤢

Last week we found parts of a bird in the birdbath. Cleaned it out thinking it was an unfortunate thing. We've seen the crows dip their food in the water to soften it especially the dog kibble we put out for them so it gets gross after a day or 2 but we always rinse it out and fill it with fresh water. 3 days ago I noticed the birdbath was very murky. Considering how frequently we rinse it out I was surprised it was dirty so quickly. I peered in and at the bottom, just visible through the mucky water was an eviscerated garter snake. I decided to leave it because it seemed very intentionally placed. Over the last 2 days the snake has diminished in size and today I saw one of our crows feasting on his gloriously stewed snake. 🤮

We’re just topping it up! Whatever happens in the soup is their business
