MAGIC MIX - HSV Audubon Suet

Melt 1 lb.(2 cups) of lard
Mix in 1 lb. (2 cups) peanut butter
Add 3 cups oats (either quick or old-fashioned)
2 cups corn meal
1 cup whole wheat flour (any flour will do). 

Stir to mix thoroughly.  During warm weather, add more flour.  Avoid too much flour as the mix will crumble when spooning it into the log feeder holes.  Store the mix in the refrigerator. 

It is not necessary to add seeds.  Most insect eating birds will not eat the seeds and their fledglings should not have them.  To discourage squirrels, try adding 3 Tbs. of cayenne pepper. 

Mixture can also be placed in foil lined 9" square pan, chilled and cut into squares to make your own "suet" cakes. Or spoon mixture into cupcake cups and place in refrigerator; this is a good size and shape for log feeders.
