Welcome birds into your neighborhood this spring…. Make your own bird feeder with recycled materials and place it on your windowsill, porch or garden. The birds can perch on the pencils and pull out seeds from the holes on the sides of the water bottle. Plus, it is super easy to refill your Bird Feeder by the cap of the top of the water bottle. Imagine watching the birds feed off of the Bird Feeder you made yourself…. wouldn’t that be so wonderful?! So, grab the materials needed and let’s get started with the craft.
