A Christmas for Birds:
Preparing ornaments for birds' Christmas tree is fun for all.
Strings of popcorn.
Cranberry and grape garlands
Oranges and grapefruit cut into quarters
Corn on the cob (dried or fresh, uncooked)
Whole Peanuts can be threaded to make a long garland or hang a few form a short length of wire. String up large, shelled nutmeats as well.
Small pinecones when dipped in rendered suet or stuffed with peanut butter mix. Dangle by looped string from the tree.
Christmas cookies for birds are fun to make using the suet, peanut butter and seed cake recipes. Harden the cookies by refrigerating in small molds. Add a few raisins for the festivities.
Invite your guests by putting out birdseed close to the decorated tree.
Be sure to offer a safe drink of water as well.
