Bird Feeder Retry

I have all this birdseed sitting around since our failed Valentine's Day bird feeder project, so I went searching for a simpler bird feeder project.  I found a much simpler plan.  It involved:

Step 1: Rounding up Frances Elliott, a.k.a. Dora, the explorer (hence the backpack);


Step 2: Spreading peanut butter on a toilet paper tube;


Step 3: Sampling the peanut butter (optional)


Step 4: Rolling the peanut buttered roll in birdseed.


Dora and the finished product

Then, Frances and I took our handiwork outside and...


...plunked it on a tree branch.


Bonus step:  Check on the bird feeder several hours later.  When its absence is discovered, discreetly curse and hack at the squirrels so three year-old doesn't add any unsavory words to her vocabulary.
