Suet Bird Feeder

A quick view of the action at the bird feeders.

This male red-bellied woodpecker loves to eat his suet. This is a special blend they make for woodpeckers, but of course the other birds eat it as well. And yes, I know the suet is still in it’s plastic package on one side. The package is hard and the birds can’t ingest it. I have it that way so that the birds will come to this side where it’s open and we can get a good view of them. This was my mom’s devilishly bright plan. Thanks for watching!

Just my dog coffey and I loving the suet feeder we put out for the birds recently but got squirrels instead. In many ways it is better and more entertaining to watch them rather than the birds. Sort of on the long side but we enjoyed watching the squirrels hang upside down stretch and reach to get the suet.
