During a recent snowfall we had 4 bluebirds at our feeders and bird bath,
seemingly preferring the suet. So far today we have only seen one that was
actively feed on the suet. Hopefully this will provide them with some much
needed protein and energy.

Subject: [birdky] If you get ice...FEED YOUR BIRDS!
For anyone who gets a layer of ice today or tonight, get out and feed your
birds tomorrow. Please throw extra seeds on the ground, too. Small birds
especially need to eat almost constantly in cold weather, and even a thin layer
of ice can make their normal wild food inaccessible.We lost a LOT of bluebirds
locally last year when we iced up for a few days.
As soon as it stops precipitating, please get out there and restock them.
Stay warm,Steve KistlerHart Co, Ky
