Materials
Pinecone – we had a really big one!
Birdseed – we used a birdseed mixture that had peanuts, dried fruit, sunflower seeds, and mealworms – a woodpecker’s favorite!
Peanut butter
Bacon Grease
String or yarn for hanging
Directions
Mix all ingredients together. Use about the same amount of peanut butter and bacon grease – enough to hold the birdseed together and stick to the pinecone. Once the pinecone is covered with the birdseed mixture, tie a piece of string around the top and hang on a low tree branch or on a birdfeeder stand. Identify and observe the birds that come to eat.
