Of course, it is desirable to feed birds all the year round, but in the winter they suffer from hunger and cold most of all.
For those who want to help them the easiest way is to make a feeding trough. This process can become interesting and creative not only for adults, but also for children.
It is possible to make a birds feeder in house conditions of various materials. Of course, it is possible to go to shop and to buy it there. But whether it is better to derive pleasure and satisfaction from the work?

- It is possible to use a package from under juice. Make rectangular or round openings in the lower part. Over them it is possible to make peaks. Fill a feeding trough with a forage and suspend on a branch or a window frame. It is remarkable that titmouses prefer such feeding troughs more than other birds.
- Take two plastic packs from instant noodles. Use them as a bottom where you will fill a forage, and roofs. Connect them by means of pieces of plywood and bolts. You watch that to birds it was not close inside.
- The good feeding trough can be made of a plastic bottle. It is possible just to make in it an opening, to fill up a forage and to suspend outside the window. And it is possible to cut off at a bottle a neck so that the peak was formed of one wall in horizontal position. Under it insert a plate into this opening and fall asleep in a bottle of sterns.
- Use as a feeding trough the released capacity from under eggs. Attach in four corners of a string. And now you can tie a feeding trough with a forage to a branch.
- It is possible to make the feeding trough grid filled with rowan fruits. It will be chosen by bullfinches, thrushes or sviristel.
- Take an empty roll from paper towels, stretch through it a tape. It has to be long that the feeding trough is real to be suspended. After that smear a roll with honey and strew with a bird's forage.
- Use a glass jar as a feeding trough. Its volume can be from 1 to 3 liters. The neck needs to be closed kapron and to make in it an opening (diameter the 5-6th).
- And, of course, it is possible to make a sound wooden feeding trough. What for this purpose is required: 2 pieces of plywood, 4 bars and 4 laths. From above attach a rope with a ring to a roof and suspend a feeding trough on a tree.
- When choosing a forage, give preference to raisin, sunflower seeds, air or shredded corn, flour hearts, the cleaned peanuts. Titmouses and woodpeckers love seeds of pumpkin, sunflower. Sparrows and goldfinches — millet, oats, a millet. Bullfinches and sviristeli-berries of a guelder-rose, rowan and elder. Woodpeckers and crossbills — cones, nuts and acorns.
