Birdfeeders

During these cold winter days, we are filling our hanging bird feeders twice a day to keep up with the demand. At this rate, we are spending much more than normal on bird seed, so now is a good time to add an assortment of leftovers to the offerings. Our hanging platform bird feeder is the perfect place to add these treats for many birds will be willing to visit it and the creatures of the night cannot reach it. Our platform feeder now is regularly stocked with the end scraps of bread, any leftover cake, bisquits and pancakes, as well as cooked oatmeal, farina, or other cereals. Left over mild cheeses, fruit, crackers, cornmeal and bacon drippings are all attractive foods to birds. Nuts, cooked meat fat, popcorn - lots of choices. Don’t throw those scraps and little pieces of leftovers away. That fruit that is a little too ripe to eat. All things the birds love. And don’t forget peanut butter - they love it! If you don’t have a hanging platform feeder, it is fine to scatter these offerings on the ground, but know they will most likely disappear over night to the local 4 legged night creatures.
