Pine
Cone Bird Feeders |
 |
A
easy-to-make Pine Cone Bird Feeder. This is a simple project that even
young children can help make. For each Pine Cone Bird Feeder
you will need:
- A large, open pine
cone
- One of the following:
peanut butter, vegetable shortening, lard or suet
- Oats or corn meal
- Bird seed
- A few feet of string
Tie a few feet of string
to a pine cone. Cover the pine cone with the mixture below. Roll the
pinecone in birdseed and then suspend it from a tree branch outside.
Food mixture:
Mix 1/2 cup Vegetable shortening, lard or suet with 2 1/2 cups
cornmeal or uncooked oats until well blended. Optional: add dried
fruit (chopped up), chopped nuts, seeds (especially sunflower and
millet), and/or suet, which are high-energy bird foods. |
