Easy Pine Cone Bird Feeder

Today I made pine cone feeders for the birds.
Here is how it's done:

You will need some bird seed - or grain, seeds and muesli from the cupboard (which is what I used), a pine cone, some string and peanut butter










Mash up the seeds and peanut butter.
Apply to the pine cone (from the bottom up). Hang in a tree and wait for the birds to come. Easy!

Easy pomelo bird feeder


Yesterday I had a pomelo (large citrus fruit) and decided to save half the peel for an easy bird feeder. This morning I woke up to a garden filled with snow - and feeding birds. Here is how I did:
I used a pomelo, but you can use any citrus fruit or other fruits with a hard peel.

Eat the fruit - leaving half the peel intact.

Make a small hole (for rainwater)
Fill with grain, seeds and muesli

Place on branches.
Alternatively hang in strings.
