Tui Feeders

Once again it was raining, but once again that didn’t stop us. Today we had a visit from Jenna from Tui, who came to see our gardens full of the compost and garden mix they donated. Of course they were looking fantastic! Jenna had also given us some feeders for nectar-eating birds, so we had fun in Greg’s shed figuring out how they worked and filling them up. Because of the rain we couldn’t hang them in the trees, but Greg said he’d help us do it next week. Jenna suggested we keep a watch on which feeders are the most popular with our local tui, and whether having them here manages to attract even more birds to our school.

Our ingredients: sugar and water.
