 and Cardinals. 



The Bird 'Tepee' is made of three 

 rather small arborvitas trees wired 

 together at the top and suet and fat pork are 

 tied to the branches. It is well patron-

 hatches, Chickadees, Cardinals, and Blue 

 Jays. A box is placed underneath 

 to keep the snow off the small seeds and 



bread crumbs for the seed-eating birds, 

 and this is well patronized by the Juncos, in 

 addition to the birds before mentioned. 

 I think it will be of interest to you and
