Bird feeder 3

This is a recipe for bird cake, I don't know any other name for it but it probably has one. Bird cake attracts waxeyes, chaffinches, sparrows, dunnocks, greenfinches and starlings. If you live in warmer climes (like the north island) you might get myna birds too.   
You will need:
1 part suet
1 part wild bird seed

Melt the suet over medium heat, when melted take off the heat and stir in the bird seed, you can add extra bird seed if you think it needs it. Pour into a plastic container and leave to set overnight. When it is set press it out of the container and put it on your bird table.
