=Birds in Winter....= Dear Wikiwatchers, The South wind doth blow and we shall have snow And what will the waxeyes do then, poor things? They'll sit in a tree and keep themselves warm, And hide their heads under their wings, poor things.

**HEAPS** of my bird friends are eating today!
Mrs Meehan's Bird Table Recipe || Eating worms...

To say that worms are edible Will seem to you incredible. Yet thrushes eat them every day; They smack their beaks and sing Hooray! They gobble them with joy and pride And do not seem upset inside. The moral here is plain to see: What pleases you does not please me;" What pleases me to you is hateful,  And for this fact we should be grateful. ||

Preening...
Preening every day, what a chore! Wing up, leg out, tuck, twist, and stretch.

Preening every day is the price we pay to crouch, spring, flap and flap... ...and flap again

...and **SOAR!** ||

where the seed comes out...
|| Use a hot glue gun to glue the bottle rim onto a plastic plate... the bottle must be in the centre of the plate ... || Use scissors to poke 2 holes at the top. Thread a piece of wire or string through the holes for hanging. Undo the lid to fill the feeder with <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 110%;">seed. ||
