I had one of those feeders! It was exactly the same as in your picture. I didn't keep it loaded with sugar all the time though.
I do have other interests besides politics; of course. Anyone who has read my posts knows that. Talk about obvious.
Of course, these days the outdoors is very much on the political chopping block. It has been for at least a century anyway, but now more than ever. It could not be any clearer which political parties are in favor of keeping Nature healthy, and which ones aren't. I have posted the stats on that ad infinitum.
Maybe on your side of the country. Not so much in mine. Like I said, get out more.

Gun control advocates usually compromise on this; I don't know any of them now who don't, as a matter of fact. Those who feel they need military weapons to shoot animals, though, should stay home, and preferably stay in the city where they won't hurt other living beings besides humans, anyway (assuming they are permitted to have them at all).
Look, I know you've never shot anything in your life. I know you can't define the difference between what are military and non-military weapons (because there is no such thing). I know you enjoy heaping more power onto the already powerful. I get it. I really do. Problem is, none of your inexperience and not-knowing makes you right in the end. It just makes you... Old and powerless.
Oh and P.S. The difference between the picture of your pond and mine? Mine has a year-round population of 0 .
