Cool Weather Bird Suet Molds Recipe #283545
I have no idea where I found this recipe...I have this one and 3 others that I wrote down at the same time but did not record from where. The birds in VA seem to like this assortment. It does only work in the winter months though as too much sun will melt this suet cake.
