Birds and other creatures usually find the food they need. But you can provide a “snack” with these home made feeders.

You’ll Need:bewicks-wren-on-pinecone-600x398

  • 1 pinecone
  • 1 cup of chucky peanut butter
  • 1 bag of bird seed
  • 1 roll of ribbon or string
  • 1 spoon

Steps:

1. Tie a length of ribbon/string to the base of the pinecone.

2. Using the spoon, spread peanut butter over the entire pinecone.

3. Roll the peanut butter covered pinecone in the bird seed. Cover the entire pinecone with seed.

4. Hang the feeder from a tree with a ribbon. Place the feeder somewhere close to a window so you can enjoy the feeder when the birds are eating your craft!!!

 

Once you have made your feeder, take a picture of your feeder and the birds that are eating it. Then send it to me at abrentzel@pheasantsforever.org for everyone else to see!!!
