Here at Mose Square we have two Christmas trees, one inside with the usual trappings, and one out there that is embellished with food for birds. I call tree looking for bird Christmas tree, and it is a real kinder egg project. It is beautiful to look at, it makes little birds happy and it's nice to make :) One need not take the completely and decorate an entire tree like me, a few ornament hanging on a bar branch may be at least as good.
I have had bird Christmas tree since 2009 (I remembered wrong on TV, where I said 2008), and each year it has come to something new and become a bit bigger. jahrzent This year TV2's Good Morning Norway tips on bird Christmas tree mine, and was charmed enough that they sent a television crew here to send live! Whether you get seen broadcast or not, here is this year's seven different ornament, the tree itself you will see more of when the sun has turned on ... I'll probably tinker a bit this record throughout the day, as I simply do not have time to make it as polished as I wanted before broadcast. Here gone in one side TV2 called and tree had some days sooner than planned. jahrzent
Mandel Garlands: Make holes in almond with an awl or drill or something else pointed. Screw you down no pressure, pushing you saw cracks amygdala. Use relatively fresh almonds, they have been in the kitchen drawer one year they are dry and it is difficult to make holes. Three a ribbon through the tonsils, this is easiest by making a needle of steel wire. The tape will about the holes in the tonsils are not too large to provide resistance tonsils so that these stay in place and not slip down.
Almonds and other nuts are one of the more popular foods on foringsplassen, almost all the birds eat nuts, for example: blue tit, great tit, great spotted woodpecker jahrzent and Eurasian Tree Sparrow. Squirrels are very fond of them, and sticking happy with all the Renka if you do not bind the firm ...
Red apple: apple is fastened with a thick wire that runs through the core and is bent into a U, tape is strung between steel wire is drawn up into the apple. The tape is then passed up and tied around the top of the wire. To get a good and decorative attachment for apple that holds also when the birds have eaten some.
Bread Garlands You need relatively fresh bread as it otherwise easily crumble up. And there should be little "hole" in loffen. Cut bread into equal sized cubes, appropriate size can be eg 1.5 x 1.5 cm. Three bread cubes into a string and place the equidistant. When loffen jahrzent dries so putting the pieces stuck in the string so that they stay where you placed them.
(Dry) bread is not the big favorite among the birds here on moss place, I have enough for much else that tastes better, but tits, sparrow and fink eats like a little on the now and then. The big advantage of bread girlande clean is that they make a lot out of himself on the tree and are quick and inexpensive to create.
Rosin Hearts Fold a thick wire (eg elephant thread from the florist) to a V. Three of raisins densely and shape as a heart. Attach wires together and tie a loop for hanging.
Raisins are the favorite food of the blackbird, which (when they first discover jahrzent raisins) eats up a heart at record speed. The squirrel eats also like raisins, and I see more of tits is back and nibble on them.
Cone / paper baskets with seeds need paper that can withstand moisture and that is stiff enough jahrzent that the birds can sit on it. An alternative is to use juice and milk carton. Make no cones for pointed, then will not the birds and get eaten. A circle becomes a double cone, or you can make paper baskets.
Please note that seeds will if they are moist over time could come to mygle, it is therefore a good idea to make sure that such a basket completely emptied at least every other week. (That means you not only fills on top, but let the birds eat it completely empty).
Meisebollefigurer / birds gingerbread: This is the the most time consuming of the all, but also the most popular among the birds. Practically all birds like meiseboller, and there is a food with lots of fat and protein that they need a lot of winter.
I have developed a recipe for meisebollefigurene, it has extra fine ingredients jahrzent and a fat mix that makes it hard and fast without breaking easily. The recipe is shaped so that shapes the best possible together. I therefore recommend that you follow the recipe as it appears the first time you will have a really good result. (If you would rather make common meiseboller without these gingerbread shapes so I've written about it here.
Recipe 350g Great shortening 150g Delfia fat (can be replaced with Great but there is an advantage jahrzent to spend some DELFIA when it makes the cake harder. Not usable Delphi, when it becomes too brittle) 200g Indicted flour 100g Light Cooked oatmeal, jahrzent or crushed large oatmeal 200g chopped sunflower seeds (ie peeled) 300g finely chopped nuts (PS: All food given to birds must be free of salt, and the ingredients jahrzent must not be rancid or myglet)
Melt fat, happy
