3. Mason Jar Feeder
Mason jars provide a versatile and elegant way to feed birds while keeping seeds protected from rain.
Materials Needed:
- Mason jar with lid
- Small wooden dowels or spoons (for perches)
- Birdseed
- Wooden board or hanger
Instructions:
- Drill small holes in the lid to create feeding ports.
- Insert dowels or spoons below the holes for birds to perch on.
- Fill the jar with seeds and attach it to a wooden board or hang it upside-down.
Mason jar feeders are durable, easy to refill, and work well in small yards or balconies. They are particularly attractive to finches, chickadees, and sparrows.
