I have had some lovely birds on my bottle feeder this past couple of weeks... but it is made of plastic.
I decided I would try and make my own feeder... and make it look a little more natural.
I started off with this piece of wood... and drilled a few holes in it.
Stuffing the holes with suet and seeds from one of the fatballs.
I only had this old piece of computer lead to use as a hanger... a temporary measure for now.
A couple of twigs for perches...
Voilà... instant approval from my garden birds...
...who took no time at all trying it out.
...and a bit more pleasing on the eye than plastic.

wow, how talented are you. around here we have little craft sales ... some one would definitely buy those for their birds lovers. (:
Now that's cool. I think I could do that!
Let me know when your website is up - Andrew'sLogFeeders.com - I want to place an order. Well done my friend.
that's awesome! makes a great photo perch. :)
Nice work Andrew - you certainly know how to spoil your birds.
brilliant stuff - I wonder what your furry grey friend will make of it!!
And, it is remarkable what you can do. I hope it would be squirrel proof????
Great feeder design. From Findlay

This is fantastic! Mr. Squirrel, I'm sure, is in hiding just waiting to pounce!
Hi Drew...Long time ...no see! Is your mom better, now? O hope so!

A great idea, and the birds seem to approve.
Well you see, even old computer leads have their uses. And the birds give it their instant approval!!
