In fact, all the citrus trees are loaded with fruit this year.
And every season, we eat the fruit, bake with it, juice it, gift it,
and share it with the birds.
And that's what this post is all about...
They are pretty simple to make...
In a bowl combine:
or whatever you have on hand:
The more dry ingredients you use, the more peanut butter you need.
I added some of the diced pulp retained from the scooped-out oranges, and some of the juice too.
LOVE oranges!
And there you have it.
This would be a great activity for the kids.
Kids love mixing messy stuff!
Messy play was always a favourite of my children when they were little, so keep this one in mind as a perfect activity to break the boredom of the summer holidays.
Once you have created these bird delicious treats,
pop them out on your feeding table.
Or you could attach a string to the orange skins before filling
with the mixture so you can hang in the branches of a tree.
Believe me, it will not be long and the neighbourhood birds
will be converging on these with complete delight!
These wee cuties are called 'waxeyes'.
For those of you who are interested in more information:
My little feathered friends just went crazy over these Nutty Orange feeders!
I get the feeling I'll be making another batch next week,
and the next week, and the next week!
