Soda bottle bird feeder kit
I saw one of these at the Bird Fair but the stall (Alana Ecology) had sold out. Does anyone know of any other suppliers in the UK? You can buy plastic ones cheaply in the US but I can't find any here.

Many thanks, Shazz and Marmot. I will keep an eye out for both of these. We were inundated with birds in summer and wanted to put extra feeders up when we were away this winter. Unfortunately we didn't need to because the birds have disappeared. Completely. Roll on Spring!

If you are wanting to put up some cheap feeders go to Wilkinsons, they have square shaped ones which are normally about £1.49 ish and this includes the seed contents. If you can get the ones with sunflower hearts (not the black ones) these go down a treat with most birds. The seed mix one is a bit strange and not overly loved by the birds. With the prices that cheap you can get some better seed mix and they do sell the sunflower hearts in packets as well.
