    For those that feed the birds with a suet recipe here is a little tip. Many use a log and drill holes in it. Buy one of those apple corers and drill holes in the log a shade bigger than the corer. Then it is easy to use the corer to make a tube of the mix and push them in the holes.

    Very clever I must say @Kildale and smashing captures as always :like:
    I used to love feeding the birds but when the squirrels show they do make one hell of a mess and take the good stuff from the bird seed.

    Lovely bird photos.

    Our bird-feeder is squirrel proof.
    They try valiantly, but only get the seeds on the ground.
