Here are some photos of us making our homemade bird suet.
Here is the Peanut Butter:

And here are our visitors:
Isn't he pretty?
My favorites are the cardinals:
I think the funniest thing to watch is the cats, our little one, Midnight, who is about 9 months, literally launched herself at the window and slid down it to the floor. It reminded me of a cartoon and I was so sad I didn't get a picture. It didn't deter her from her constant vigil though.

Jan. 22, 2007 - Oh neat!
I am going to bed right now - but just jumped on bloglines to see if any of my buddies have posted and it was so neat to see this post of yours. I wish I could be at your house to watch the birdies - and the kitties - but mostly the kids! Oh yeah - and a little snow would be nice too!
Love you guys - thanks for sharing a little bit of "home" and "family" with me - you are all so much a part of me that I feel like half of me is missing without you guys!

I think that same woodpecker comes to our suet feeder. He's so my favorite. Your pictures are great!!

Your homemade bird feeders look like so much fun! I love to watch the birds at our feeders. We pretty much just get different types of finches here, though. Thanks for posting your cardinals. I think they're my favorite birds.
