Build your own bird food house (from yoghurt bucket)

Build a bird food house from a yoghurt bucket (500g capacity). This unique bird food place is weatherproof, very robust and protects the food from rain weather. For this purpose, you paint the cup on two large windows, which allow the birds to access the food. A branch serves the birds as a landing place. It is glued to the cup. The lid protects the food from rain. You can decorate it with some moss. Finally, the self-built upcycling bird house hangs it with the handle of the bucket on a branch or in a place protected from cats.
