Just a quick post this time with a picutre of the bird feeder my girls and I made today. The old one was falling apart, so we thought we'd make a new one for this winter and place it a little closer to our living room window for an optimal birdwatching setup.
Apparently the food shouldn't be lying around in an area where the birds poop as well, so I tried to contain the seeds in the "chimney" with just a few holes for them to pick them out from. The top of the chimney lifts off for refilling.
Hoping it's up high enough for potential feline predators, but probably won't be much of an issue in winter.
