treats for the birds

oranges in birdfeeder

When life hands you oranges (and you leave them in the refrigerator drawer until they get mushy and nobody wants to eat them), make bird food!

We have several types of birds here that love to eat fruit. So on the rare occasion that we have some get too old, I set it out for them. I also set out watermelon rinds and pineapple skins- there is still a lot on those that the birds can pick off even after we are through, and they love anything with extra moisture in it here in the desert. The big wooden feeder we have
with the open sides is perfect for creating a fruit buffet for our feathered friends.
