1
Take a standard 2L drink bottle and mark out and cut circular holes about a third of the way up from the base. Make sure there are no sharp edges.
2
Just below the holes make two small holes and push a cane through the bottle to act as a perch.
3
Feed a wire through the screw cap so that you can hang the feeder in your garden.
4
To give the feeder some stability you can put gravel in the base. Finally, put food up to the level of the circular holes and hang in your garden.
