Now that winter is over it is nesting season for wild birds. It is too warm for Homemade Suet Cake so I am turning my Suet Feeder into a nesting material station for the wild birds.
I use mostly natural materials found in the environment at my station to attract nesting birds. I also mix in some colorful shredded paper, yarn and thread scraps hoping to spot nests during the season with my colorful materials.
Nesting Materials

Dead leaves
