Home-made Bird Balls

Give your feathered friends a treat that the kids can help you make!

1 pound of lard

1 jar of peanut butter

5 cups corn meal

6 cups oats

2 cups sunflower seeds

2 cups raisins


Mix everything together (this will be nice and messy, so get the kids to help!). Roll into about 5 or 6 small balls. Roll balls in sunflower seeds and raisins. Place the balls in a bird feeder and watch your feathered friends enjoy their snack. You can also put some netting round the balls to make it easier to hang.
