Thanks for the reminder to get BBQ sauce!
I would like a birdhouse, as my patio is protected, but I don’t know what kind of bird it would attract. We have pigeons (which are periodically killed because of the diseases they spread,) mocking birds, mourning doves, crows, the occasional sparrow hawk, and a few sparrows. I can’t hang a hummer feeder because of the wind that rips through my patio from SE to SW. It spills the syrup so none but the ants get it, and THAT is unacceptable!
We have a hummingbird feeder that sticks on the window with a suction cup. That might be stable for you. We love the Angry Bird Show in the summer.
Then we have Tom the Mocker and his battles with the catz.
