Suet Log Feeder |
| |
This simple project creates a great addition to your bird feeding station. |
| | |
 |
All you really need is a log into which your have drilled a few holes that can be stuffed with suet and hung up for the birds to enjoy. |
|
| | |
 |
|
Be sure to drill some holes in the top as well as the bottom. The top holes are favourites of woodpeckers who use the rest of the log as a support.
Smaller birds will enjoy the lower holes. |
| | |
|
|
 |
A simple piece of bark can be easily added to the top of the log. This not only provides a bit of protection for the birds but also quite an attractive addition. |

Smaller birds like this Bewick's Wren also enjoy the suet log feeder.
You might want to make several logs and place them in different spots. |

Birds love this so much, they are even willing to share as demonstrated by this Chestnut-backed Chickadee and Red-breasted Nuthatch |
