Look at the date on the post above mine. It was time to bump this up.

We have a spiffy new feeder. :P It matches our nice neat brush pile. (so glad we live in the country to not deal with unhappy neighbors) My husband was going to burn this, but I saw an idea in a book recently where they used the trunk of a tree as a big woodpecker feeder. They drilled holes in it to stuff with suet or whatever PB mix. I do not have really good pictures of the birds using it, but Juncos and Downy Woodpeckers have figured it out.

It amazed me that the Juncos learned that was food. The woodpeckers being tree clingers, I could see, but Juncos?

Mrs. Ed, I bought a double sock feeder like that. When I got it, I thought it would take a long time to empty. Little did I know that we were going to have a Redpoll invasion and I needed to fill it up every day for about 3 weeks.

Does anyone else have any new interesting feeders?
