And the Winner is…Bark Butter!

I freely and without apology confess that I am obsessed with my backyard birds. I also readily admit that a fair bit of our budget goes toward feeding them. Now I like offering a variety of food choices, but if I had to pick one that I simply must have it is without a doubt “Birdacious Bark Butter.” They go crazy for this stuff! Every month I trek over to our local Wild Birds Unlimited and stock up with a fresh supply.

Let me give you a photo sampling of some of the regulars who stop in to partake of this nutritious feast which is a mixture of peanuts, corn, suet and soy oil.

Red-bellied Woodpecker

Pine Warbler (male)

Ruby-crowned Kinglet

Thrasher

…humor me with a few more….

Yellow-rumped Warbler (female)

Blue jay

Eastern Bluebird and Pine Warbler (female)

By the way…the feeder is my husband’s handiwork. He drilled holes in a Bradford Pear log to hold the bark butter and then added perches. Cool, eh?
