NESTING MATERIAL SUET CAGE BUSY SPOT!
Richelle Hunter
Along with all the feeders we have in our garden, over the past several years we have offered a spot for the birds to gather some of the items they might like to use in the construction of their nests. In the past we have used a peanut/wreath feeder while this year the hair, fur, string, etc. have been placed in a suet cage. We have this located next to our feeders and, needless to day, it has been a very busy spot with us having to refill it several times! It is so fun to watch as the birds fill their beaks with their desired material, then fly off to where they have decided to locate their nests.
