Winter is for the birds...

I love the gentle quiet that winter provides. It's time to take a look back at what worked well, what needs tweaking, what we can hope to do next spring. And a time to be grateful for the space winter opens up in our minds and hearts.
So, the birds....
Our school garden club made some simple pine-cone feeders with peanut butter and bird seed.
Materials: 
pine cones, string or yarn, peanut butter, tongue depressors, bird seed, newspaper, patience
Process:                       
                                              Spread newspaper on table (We forgot this.).

 Tie string to pinecones.                                          

 

        Smear peanut-butter on cones.

Dredge cones in bird seed.

Hang cones from tree.

   

                                                 Watch the birds discover the feast.
