These bird feeders are super quick to make and I’m hoping they will encourage some birds into our community garden.
All you need is some pine cones, bird seed, lard, twine and a blunt knife.
Use the blunt knife to spread lard generously on the pine cone. Cover the lard in birdseed and tie a piece of twine tightly around the pine cone.
Hang up the tasty treat on a tree and wait for some birds to come looking for their lunch!
Love this, there is nothing better than upcycling nature for a good use and a fun afternoon of learning for kids too #FabFriday post

These are a favorite in our house- I will admit I am a bit worried the twins will take a bite out of them.
