Make a bird feeder
Scroll or swipe down to find out how to make a feast for the birds in your garden. There are three different bird feeders you can make with your grown-up. Take a look below, you might want to make all three!
Apple Bird Feeder

This make is easy and fun but you'll need a grown-up to core the apple for you.
Step 1
Thread the string through the hole in the apple.
Step 2
Make an 'X' with the sticks and tie them to the string so the apple sits on top.
Step 3
Make a pattern by pushing the seeds into the apple, then it's ready to hang up!
Pine Cone Feeder

Have some warm, soapy water ready once you finish as the mix can be messy!
Step 1
Mush together the seeds, lard, cheese and raisins in a mixing bowl.
Step 2
Tie a string to your pine cone then cover it with the mix. Don't forget to fill the holes!
Step 3
Pop it in the fridge until set, then it's ready for the birds!
Fruit Hoops

You'll need a grown-up to help with this one!
Step 1
Ask a grown-up to cut cubes of apple and cheese.
Step 2
Be very careful and ask a grown-up to help you thread fruit and cheese onto the wire like a necklace.
Step 3
Make a hoop with the wire and tie it to some string. Ready!
Top tip for wildlife watchers
Set your bird feeders on branches in front of a window so you can watch the birds without disturbing them.
Follow these easy steps and you'll have a bird feast in your back garden in no time! If you thought that was fun, the RSPB have more activities on their Kids website.
