Wonderful!

Recipe, please, and how do you keep the squirrels off if it?

Hey Tim..
Here is a link to the recipe I use.. it’s for a small batch but I just increased the amounts to make a much larger potion.. as for keeping squirrels off see attached pic of one of my feeders..

Ok, squirrel guard. Was hoping you had some novel new idea!

I may be missing it, but don't see a link?

Hi Tim..it’s there now..

Excellent, thanks!

Oddly I went looking and ran into that same recipe. I looks pretty easy compared to some I saw with fresh nuts and whatnot.

It’s very easy and the birds love it..

Superb. Great looking birds.

Very good to see these shot of a bird we don't have in our wonderful country.
So this is a way that people from places that don't have them get the chance to see them.
