WILD BIRD FEEDING - I love my bird friends and they provide endless fascination for my house cats. I have bought "waste-free" bird seed in the past and the birds love it. Problem is, the stuff is expensive and my money is tight. I assume making my own waste-free seed would be less expensive. While I can simply read the bag for the ingredient list, I have no idea what the individual seed proportions are. Anyone have a waste-free bird seed "recipe"? Not suet, just seeds please.

So I've had this crazy idea for a while and now that the Minnesota winter has finally succeeded in breaking my spirit after 25 years, I think I should go with it. Has anyone out there lived the life of an employed vagabond? Here's what I have in mind... [more inside]
