This special, holiday themed, craft program involves making fun edible ornaments that will serve winter birds as a dependable food source during the cold winter months. Participants will make a natural bird feeder using pine cones, peanut butter, string, and birdseed. While creating your bird feeder, learn about some of our common Virginia backyard winter birds.

Take your creation home and place it somewhere you think your backyard birds will enjoy. Observing birds provides endless entertainment, if you can, hang your creation somewhere that allows for your viewing pleasure.
