This is just a happy photo. Didn't work up anything special for the challenge. I happened to make a new suet feeder today for the birds since we have all of this ice and snow currently. Haven't had a suet feeder since a bear tore up the last one. This feeder was a quick piece of work using scraps in the woodshop and some leftover chicken wire from the garden. The wood is oak and came from a tree that I salvaged for lumber a while back.

Not long after I put this feeder up, I had a customer, one of my favorite birds, a Nuthatch. Ran and grabbed the camera. :-)
