Happy Birds, Happy Kelly.

Anyone who knows Kelly is very aware that she is a animal lover - perhaps a bit over the top at times, but that's for another post, another time.


It is also accurate to state that Kelly is huge big fan of clementines. During season, she takes to a clementine like a little kid takes to candy.

One waste byproduct of the clementine has nothing to do wit the fruit itself, rather the waste is store packaging of the fruit itself. More specifically, the wooden shipping crate one finds for themselves in possession of after consuming this tasty citrus fruit.


The other day it dawned on me that I can refashion these wooden crates while also fulfilling Kelly's desire to nourish the birds.

This modest contraption keeps everyone happy - Kelly is delighted that birds are getting adequate food supply, my cat is giddy with all this new action, and I get to see a variety of interesting birds from the comfort of my deck.

It's a win-win-win anyway you look at it.
