Carolina Chickadee ~ Tufted Titmouse |
Last year I held a class for the Master Gardener chapter that I'm a member of on making bird-feeders utilizing natural sources, recycled materials and re-purposed items. Of course the best bird-feeder is what nature provides: nuts, seeds and fruit from native trees, shrubs and wildflowers (and native insects)... Here's my hand-out for my "bird" talk I give:
Creating a Bird Garden
The DIY wine bottle bird-feeder that I demonstrated involved drilling a couple of holes in a wine bottle. Once you get the hang of drilling through glass, it's a fun feeder to make. Here's the DIY for that feeder:
DIY Wine Bottle Bird-Feeders
This wine bottle feeder requires drilling 4 holes in a wine bottle -
which would be very difficult to do without a drill press...
I love how these feeders have turned out and it seems my backyard birds approve too! ♥
