Feed the Birds

For Christmas, Charlie gave Max a birdhouse kit so they could build a birdhouse together. Charlie loves doing projects with Daddy so this may have been more of a gift for him. On New Years Eve Charlie and Max put their birdhouse together and painted it. Last week they finally found the perfect spot to put the birdhouse, on a big knotty tree in our side yard where Charlie can see it from his chair at the dinner table. 

Charlie and I decided that we should make bird feeders to put around the house to attract the birds. We are really hoping we get some baby birds come springtime!

Charlie made this simple bird feeder...which some animal has since carried off...

And we made a great toilet paper tube bird feeder.

We've been having fun checking on the bird house and bird feeders...especially since so many birds are out with this early Spring we are having.
