Do you give the birds a special winter or holiday treat?

A Tree for the Birds!
Attract birds to your yard with a tree decked out in edible decorations:

Some ideas to try: Cover pinecones with peanut butter or suet (beef or sheep fat), roll in birdseed and hang from branches with ribbons. Or make garlands out of any combination of popcorn, cranberries and peanuts in the shell. Other "ornaments" can include stale bagels hung from ribbon and millet "icicles." Birdseed, suet and millet can all be found at most pet or wild bird supply stores.

Thanks for sharing this great web site CMAmy!
