OOh, i have just the saucer's too. I've got them filled with water for the birds, but I need to add the sand .. I just finished this one, but don't know if I need to do something else. I was so excited that I just hung it in the middle of the yard.. I didn't know if it needed to be in the shade or out in the open.

I have another board for a second one, these boards fell off a wooded half-barrel. I drilled holes in the ends and used some metal plant markers and some pieces of leftover chain, and a skewer a the top, I just bent the bottom to form a hook and opened the top some to hang it. I'm going to make a couple of labels and put something like

"Butterfly Stop" on the plant labels.

If I need to put something else on there, please let me know or any ideas, or if I missed something.. I think I did not mash the bananas enough.

As soon as I turned around, one of our golden retrievers gave it a good lick..lol.. they are so used to eating bananas, that I think they thought it was for them..
