5.0 out of 5 stars Great booklet with tons of "bonus" info, January 4, 2009

By	M. Bell "mcvwdox" (PA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I purchased this booklet looking for bird food recipes only. To my happy surprise it also includes some really valuable "bonus" materials - basics on types of bird feeders, the types of foods that certain birds like, and also a great matrix of foods (and household scraps and foods) and their "attractiveness" and nutritional values to birds. These sections came in very handy for me as I always wonder, "would my birds eat x?" and now I really know!

The book also helped me identify a new bird at our new sunflower seed bird feeder. I looked at sunflower seeds in the booklet and it said that pine siskins enjoy sunflowers - and sure enough - as soon as we hung the new feeder, we had pine siskins visiting it!

Definitely a great value for a great resource.
