Bird Feeders (Part 3)

It's been a while now since we've made a bird feeder for our backyard. We had some pinecones lying around (Monkey loves to collect them on walks) so I thought it would be a good way to use some of them. 

Supplies: pinecones, peanut butter, birdseed, string, knife, shallow dish 


After I had tied a piece of string to each pinecone, Monkry started covering them with peanut butter. 


Once he was done, I went over them quickly just to make sure the peanut butter was spread all over the pinecone. I'm pretty sure Monkey ate more than he put on the pinecones! 


Next, we poured some birdseed into our tray. Then, holding them by the string, Monkey rolled the pinecones in the birdseed. 


In a couple of minutes Monkey had all the pinecones ready. 


We took them straight outside and hung them in our backyard. 


Less than an hour after hanging them we saw the first bird!
