A fills to its drain level
B fills to is drain level
C's lower drain is blocked so it fills to its upper drain
J's lower drain empties to an outlet above is drain to L
L drains to both F and H
As H's upper edge is below F's, H fills.
Answer is H.

Opps, the drain to H is closed. So F can fill

L - probably wrong, but it will make the "right" people feel better.

Assuming the flow into C is not so great to reach the upper outlet, G will fill first.

Water flow: A to B, B to C, C to J, J to L, L to F = F fills first

I have two tanks, A and B, for house use. B, although larger than A, always fills first because the gutters have been plumbed to favor B.

Maybe I should change my answer to B.

I like the way the birds are using it.
