This has inspired me to make birdfeeders- in part because squirrels can't eat ceramic birdfeeders.
My brother and sister-in-law bought this for me and I put ordinary suet in it which the birds AND squirrels loved.
It took me two trips and three additional calls to Walmart to find hot pepper suet, but I finally got some. And I bought a bunch of it. Now I will win and the squirrels will lose. Put the hot pepper suet in today.
Any particular forms of ceramic birdfeeders that you recommend? I made several in the past few years and well, they're hard to make so the birdseed doesn't fall out... not sure how I will keep the squirrels away, but at least it's worth a try.
Tomorrow a bisque firing which will include a bunch of pieces that participants made at a workshop I led recently. Then I'll glaze them on Monday and glaze fire on Tuesday. Busy week! Glad I'm feeling better- had my first sinus infection last week and finally went to the dr. for antibiotics. So am thankful that I'm on the mend...
Thanks for reading and your comments!
