Many, many thanks, Val. I couldn't remember why dryer lint was a 'no-no' and was hoping you'd speak up. I used to put out snips of embroidery floss and crochet yarn but was warned that they were not good nesting material either. We're feeding visitor birds by the hundreds now; we'd reckon an early spring is coming to the north somewhere. The robins have already come, filled up on every fishing worm in reach and moved on. Golly, what a sight. We are hoping that our little hummingbirds wait a while yet. It is bitter here just now. Keeping the feeders loaded is a constant chore - and joy. Polly
"Val" Please don't put out dryer lint for nesting birds. Birding groups and
