  3. (quote-journal) The flesh the mistletoe berry is sticky, and forms strings and ribbons between my thumb and forefinger.

The stickiness means that, after eating the berries, birds often regurgitate the seeds and then wipe their bills on twigs – leading to the seeds' getting glued to the tree, where they can germinate and begin the cycle anew.
