Bird Treats

It's still March, so the little birdies are still hungry from this long cold, snowy winter.   So, I thought I would pop in here for a quick bird feeder craft.  It's so easy the kids can make them and it's fun to watch the birds enjoy something yummy to eat.   This should hold them over, till Spring berries start popping up.

What You'll Need:
  • Cardboard toilet paper tubes
  • Wax paper or newspaper
  • Honey or peanut butter
  • Plastic table knives
  • Two foot pieces of yarn
  • Paper plates
  • Bird seed (choose small birdseed, because it will stay on the cardboard tube more easily than larger varieties)

Now, just hang them up in your tree.  I hung mine outside of  my front window.  I enjoy watching them eat while I relax in the morning.  I will post a picture when the birds are eating their treats.
