WINTER BIRD TREATS
Any fruit left over from canning
Apricots
plums
chokecherries
Nanking cherries
When I make jelly all the fruit pulp is left over and if I don't plan to use
it for something else I would just toss it. I started saving those plastic
squares the suet cakes come in from the store for my suet feeder and press
the pulp into them, cover with plastic wrap, then freeze for winter. You can
pop them out of the plastic and store in plastic bags so you can make more
with just a few suet squares. Put in the feeder out of the sun and they will
feed any birds that hang around during winter.
Fun and cheap!
