Birds have been known to peck at sedum in the summer to get at the moisture stored in sedum’s leaves. Has it been particularly dry or hot where you live? This could be why the ever-resourceful birds are going to unusual lengths for water. We would suggest covering your sedum with some bird-proof netting for the time being. You can remove the netting once the sedum starts to flower, if it hasn’t already, as the birds should leave the flowers alone. We would also suggest putting out a bird bath or two in your yard to give the birds an alternative water source.
