those little pine cone birdfeeders are always a popular fall kids craft, which is awesome! but just a reminder- do not use salted peanut butter for bird feeding! small amounts likely won’t hurt, but salted foods aren’t good for birds. also check for xylitol – this is found in some peanut butter and can make birds very very sick!

if you are allergic to peanut butter, you can use unsalted sunflower, cashew, or other nut butters!

Xylitol can make a lot of other animals sick, too, including dogs and cats. If you have pets, I suggest not keeping xylitol-containing peanut butter around at all.
