t has cost us money to buy fatballs to get birds back into the garden. And
they love it. Nothing left within 24hrs. I can't identify the birds, but
that is not my wory.
Can we make our own fatballs? and if so how?
If we don't hang them under a "bell" the gulls have them away so they have
to be able to hang and not drop off.



Might be easier to buy one or two coconut shell ones -let them eat the
fat/insects out of those, then you can bring the empty shells indoors
and fill them up with fat and more seed etc. Baz.

Easier than trying to form fatballs !
