Subject: [DVHH-Villages-L] Drunken birds

By the time they reached their destination, they were falling all over the road. It sounded if they were singing, or arguing amongst themselves. They ate too many fermented berries and got drunk.

About 30 years an elderly neighbor of mine told us that the birds would eat the fermented berries from his Ash Tree (I think). They would eat until they literally fell out of the tree. Sometime later they would fly back to enjoy another snack! Susan
