Backyard Birdfeeder! by FamilyFun Magazine
Spoon feed your yard birds with this homemade birdseed dispenser.
Material:
Clean 1-liter soda bottle
Craft knife
2 wooden spoons
Small eye screw
Length of twine for hanging
Instructions:
1. Start by drawing a 1/2-inch asterisk on the side of the clean 1-liter soda bottle, about 4 inches from the bottom. Rotate the bottle 90 degrees and draw another asterisk.
2. Use a craft knife to slit the asterisk lines and cut out the circles (a parent's job). Insert a wooden spoon handle first through each hole and then through the opposite asterisk.
3. Remove the bottle cap and twist a small eye screw into the top of it for hanging.
4. Finally, fill the feeder with birdseed, recap it, and use a length of twine to hang it from a tree!
