Garden Bird Recipes: A Simple Basic Recipe

That's recipes for food for garden birds not recipes that call for garden birds as an ingredient!

The basic recipe
Put a mixture of seeds, peanuts, oatmeal, cake and scraps into a container and pour hot fat over the mixture until it's covered.  Leave this to set then turn it out onto your bird table. Alternatively, prepare it in a yogurt pot or empty coconut shell and hand it out upside down when set.  You should expect to use one pound of mixture to half a pound of fat.
