RE: Birds just wanna have fun (getting drunk)
Ha. Drunk birds! Did you see any fall out of the tree? I wonder if they can fly straight after downing a dozen or so. It could be pretty fun to watch them try taking off drunk.
When I lived in southern Spain, there was a kind of berry called a madroño that fermented on the tree like that. They were actually pretty tasty, though.
Well none of them fell down from the tree though, but it would have been a real sight.
I had to google what madroño is, but based on the description it's also a perfect berry for the birds to eat. It'd be interesting to know if the birds specifically wait for the berries to be fermented so they can get drunk or if it's a lucky accident.
