Spring Flowers

Even after the dearth of April showers there are some May flowers.  Rain during the cold month of April was less than one inch, but, it has rained almost six inches in May.

Here are some beautiful May flowers.

 

 

Double Jug Bird Feeder

Although it is a couple of months late, the new double jug bird feeder has finally arrived. During the cold weather I put feed out on a board for the birds to eat. They quickly discovered it and started coming by when they saw me adding more feed. The following bird feeder is designed to fit over a t-post. It is made from cedar wood and plastic one gallon jugs. After finishing it I already recognize a flaw, so, this version is numbered 0.1.

Here are some pictures of the double jug bird feeder:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Since some components of the feeder are made of food grade plastic, I wonder how long it will last out in the direct sunlight.
