    I just finished this seed bell and hung it up just outside the window. I came in and the chickadee was already on it. When it left I opened the window and in less than a minute had taken these pictures. They are only 2 or 3 feet away.

    I'm wondering did you make the seed bell yourself Kildale? It seems like something you would be good at making.

    They were probably watching you through the window waiting on you to finish it. :stew2:

    Ahhh that reminds me I must get my finger out and start making fat ball and cakes before the birds take the huff and move elsewhere.

    What a great tutorial, Kildale. Thanks for sharing. I can't believe the cost to feed birds and any way to make it more economical is welcome. These would make great gifts, too.
