Patty, the birds are probably thirsty. That is why they are picking at your

I love your videos Patty! This is my first year trying to plant a raised

male will be smaller and will not have a tiny roundness to the bottom of
the bloom. The female will. I hope that helped. Sorry to get back to you so
