So, remember your feathered friends this holiday season! Scoop some peanut butter into some pinecones, and tie up some fresh fruit as fun and easy ways to enjoy their company!

Sugar cones are large (about 10") and make great makeshift birdfeeders! Scoop peanut butter into the cones and roll in birdseed. Hang them outside of a window with decoative ribbon, and wait for the flock to arrive...A great activity to do with kids!
