Whole Peanut Wreath Feeder
Blue Jays, nuthatches, titmice, chickadees, and other peanut-eating birds will enjoy this wreath feeder — and so will squirrels. (Here’s an idea: Why not use it to lure the rascals away from your birdseed feeders?) Easy to fill: Just hook the ends of the metal spring and throw in the nuts. Birds will perch at all angles to feast on peanuts. 13" diameter, 2.75" deep. www.duncraft.com $19.95 |
