Today the female GSW came, and she seemed to prefer the peanut feeder with the round holes (put up in case the parakeets came back) but then she went from the feeder to the base of a tree, and from there to the pathway.
I couldn't see exactly what she was doing, since there was a pot in the way but I think she was drinking from a tray that a pond basket is sitting in, waiting to go in the pond. I've not seen a GSW stay on the ground as long as she did, (it's a shame she doesn't use the bird bath, because the water in that tray isn't exactly fresh) and after that she went back on the feeder.
