We ran out of bird feed this week!
I knew that I should have gone to Dollar General to buy my milk on Thursday. But I didn't, and yesterday Flip and I made peanut butter/stale cracker pizzas for our bird feeders. Plus we filled the trays with crushed crackers and rice crispies.
For my Dutch followers, Vivara makes a special "pindakaas" for birds with all the best ingredients for birds. Wonder why Calve isn't good enough? We eat and like the Dollar General brand peanut butter. If it is good enough for us and Flip, it must be good enough for the wild birds.
The cardinals and sparrows loved the "gourmet" meals yesterday evening and this morning.
Our son took a "snow day" yesterday and got a chance to see his bird restaurant in business. Today he went out and bought this "bird swing" to spruce up the joint.
This swing would be a perfect place for a possum naptime, don't you think?
And speaking of birds, here you can find a few bird-feeding myths:
You are really spoiling the birds with your 'gourmet' meals, haha. So nice you have cardinals in your garden, I have seen them already on several blogs, but over here they only can be kept in birdhouses. The tits in our garden are fond of Calvé pindakaas, when I buy a cheaper brand they don't eat it, is not that funny.
