BIRD FEEDER VOTE OPEN!!!!!

Hey mommies! I hope everyone is having SUCH a good week!!!! Things are looking up for me since June Snapple got food poisoning on Thursday! She's still campaigning (and probably neglecting her children in the process, but you know me, I don't judge other moms), but she's sick and therefore getting WHAT SHE DESERVES!!! ;-)

Anyways, below are the 5 best bird feeders you made! Make sure to vote for your favorite one on the top right! I'll leave voting open until the end of Wednesday! Let's beat our voting record of 207 for the dream catchers!!!

Kel's Bird Hair: So I'm always telling my teenage daughters two things: 1) Uh-Uh honey, you are NOT going out of the house with your hair looking like a bird's nest! and, 2) You should get outside more and enjoy nature. You so totally inspired me with your bird feeder cuz I thought, why not combine them!!?!? This is one of my daughters trying it out, and she LOVES it. All you do is make sure your hair can hold lots of stuff that attracts birds. In this case, we used leaves and a shiny tiara. But of course you could add whatever you have around, like grass or bugs or teeny-tiny books about migration. Then just fill the center with the foods your local birds love and hold really, really still! We have a lot of hummingbirds, so of course we use mostly popcorn and pistachio nuts, but again, the options are limitless. Next week we're going to add live mice to try to attract hawks.

Daniel's Holy Dove Bird Feeder: We are a religious household and we do what we can to attract only the most spiritual birds around here. All other birds are of the devil.

Melissa's Cat Bird Feeder:  We girls know how important it is to get "beach ready"....this fancy bird feeder sends the message "look, eating is ok....but let's not overdo it being unhealthy is for the birds"!! (#amIright??)

Sara's Toilet Roll: I totally have about 10 toilet paper roll bird feeders hanging on the trees in my front yard that we made last week.  The birds love them so much that we can't even keep up with enough tp and paper towel usage to supply the neighborhood flocks.

Ray's Teaser Bird Feeder: As a mom, I despise all birds. That is why I place the food in a way that no bird can possibly get to it. When I'm not to busy posting about the other moms in the neighborhood I'm mad about on Facebook, I sit at the window and watch the birds run into this.

    1. She did have great plans to feed the oft-neglected birds of prey, though. Live mice it is!

  3. How is everyone not voting for Ray's Bird Feed Teaser?!? Maybe they didn't scroll down to the end - I almost didn't.

  4. Although Kel's attachable hairpiece bird feeder is super cute and reasonable, its secularist nature is quite troubling. That's why my vote is for Daniel, who showcases beautifully the really meaning of "bird feeder" (although there should be a feather protector added for the safety of the feathers I think). And RAY, get your mind out of the gutter! Haven't you ever seen "Birds"? Let us all strive not to entice the wrath of mother nature, lest we pay the consequences.

    1. Oh annonymus you are Sooo smart! How do you think of words like strive and connseqens? So anyways, I'm not shur what "secularist" means, but I forgot to tell everybody that we've started doing this bird feeder thing in bikinis. We know it attrects men so why not male birds!?!?? It seems to be working. Or maybe it's all the money we're feeding them. They really like those shiny dimes!! Plus, it's such a great way to get a tan. We feel awesome giving to sosiety in sO many ways!
