Winter snacks for our feathered friends and acquaintances.
- empty milk carton
- string
- birdseed
- Check with a grown-up before you begin. Cutting a milk carton can be pretty tricky.
- First, punch a hole in the top of the milk carton and put a string through the hole.
- Cut the milk carton starting 5 1/2 inches up from the bottom.
- Start in the middle of one side and cut all the way around to the middle of the opposite side.
- Then go back to where you started, and cut down about 3 inches, and then back around to the opposite side, and up until you meet the other cut. This will be a doorway.
- Then fill the carton with bird seed until it reaches the hole you cut in the sides.
- Using the string, hang the carton on a tree branch or something else outside.
- To find out more about what birds need and how you can help them, check out the ZOOM Into Action: Conservation Guide in ZOOM Into Action.
