Build a bird feeder out of supplies that many families have lying around the house!

Supplies:

• Craft/popsicle sticks or knife
• Toilet paper rolls
• Twine or string
• Scissors
• Peanut butter, Sun butter or Soy butter
• Bird seed or bird-friendly alternatives (below are some ideas)
  • Rolled or quick oats
  • Unsalted and raw, crushed peanuts, pecans, or walnuts
  • Both dry and wet food for cats and dogs is thought to be a healthy food source for birds
