FEATHERING THEIR NEST!
Guest User
While one may be figuring that the Orioles just arrived and it’s too soon for them to think about nesting….it isn’t! We have seen photos of these masters of nest-building at work and in just the last couple of days, one was spotted gathering some alpaca fibre from our suet cage. They will use the fibre to line their nests.
We have the cage positioned in the area where our feeders are….they just seem to know where to find it! When we put the fibre out for them, we pull apart small pieces and place them in the cage. Note: We don’t stuff it full, only very tiny amounts, some of which protrude through the spaces in the suet cage. We prefer to continue adding more rather than putting a large amount out. If you’re looking for some fibre for your backyard birds, we have some available now!
