I tried something new this year I made some pop corn balls with peanut butter on them to hold the bird feed,,,what a mess that is LOL now in the fall I will have corn with wire ties on them,,, hahahahaha...

Bj is right. My birds are to picky. They eat all the seed and throw the cracked corn on the ground. This year I had corn growing all around the feeder in the wifes flower bed. We let most of it grow. Nothing came of it tho.

Jeff, nice job on the bird feeder. I took the one I had down because I hated to clean the mess.

Jeff., the secret of being a good woodworking hobbyist is to know how to hide you're mistakes. I hope you haven't used old Lead based paint, it effects the brain, and the birds can't afford to lose any of that!

I made a beautiful bird feeder and the birds were soo happy with it. Then comes along Mr. Squirrel that thought ... "this might make a nice home when I am done eating all the food out of it.... let's see... first I need to chew a hole in the top so I can crawl down inside and push more food onto the ground for all my buddies. Let's see...no more food left.... and now there is a hole in the top and I will get wet. Oh well, maybe that dumb ass will fill it with food again"
