I did not read carefully when making my grocery order and ended up with a super-sized watermelon rather than a small, reasonable sized watermelon. Oops.

I cut up half, saved a couple slices for the chickens, then ran out of fridge room, so set out the remaining section for the wildlife (in front of the trail cam of course).

The mammals were only mildly interested, but the ants, flies, and butterflies loved it and quickly made a rather grotesque mess of the melon. I suspect the opossum that visited was more interested in the larva than the flesh. The cats just watched the butterflies.
