This week the Wed Colony were making a bird feeder which at this time of the year, when there is not as much natural food available, is very important. First of all the Beavers talked about this need and where the feeder should be positioned before getting down to the messy bit. They mixed bird seed in with lard before putting the mix into a plastic pot which had had a string attached. This they then took home and hopefully is now hanging in the garden or by a window and will be attracting birds.
