[to top]	J.J. Ponders Suet	J.J.'s suet feeding tips...Suet is a high energy treat made from animal fat and other ingredients which appeal to insect eating birds. It serves as a great energy source substitute when the insects they normally eat are not plentiful...especially during cold weather months. But most varieties of suet can be presented all year long. You'll attract brown creepers, warblers, nuthatch, as well as woodpeckers and other "tree clinging" species. You may find some species who normally do not dine at bird feeders such as robins, wren, bluebirds, and even warblers. You'll have the best success attracting a host of birds by selecting a brand made with quality ingredients, and high fat content (greater than 30%). My personal favorite is the Ozark Brand Safflower Suet Cake; they're packed hard, last a long time, and squirrels tend to shy away from 'em.
